Praise For This Book


"Gripping." -National Examiner

"Stacy Willingham is a bona fide rising star in the mystery and thriller genre." -Goodreads

"A clever, well-written book that will keep you guessing until the end." -Free-Lance Star

"Terrific... Willingham's strong affinity for characters and her superior plotting elevate All the Dangerous Things... seals her place as a talented novelist." -South Florida Sun Sentinel

"Stellar suspense at its very best... this one will rightfully find itself on many a year-end, best-of list." -Vulture

"Slow-burning yet simmering with tension and suspense, All the Dangerous Things is hypnotic, immersive, and emotionally-impactful-the kind of mystery you'll sink into, not coming up for air until you've turned the final page." -Crime by the Book

"This is a mind-bending psychological thriller of the highest order. Willingham speaks the same literary language as the likes of Sandra Brown, Lisa Gardner and Lisa Scottoline and is heading down a path toward the same greatness they achieved." -BookTrib

"True crime's trending appeal and Willingham's mastery of the domestic mystery promise popularity for this one...those who crave resolution will appreciate that Willingham tucks the story's ends in tight." -Booklist (starred review)

"Willingham is so relentless in linking Isabelle's sleeplessness to her deepening sense of waking nightmare that fans can expect some seriously sleepless nights themselves." -Kirkus Reviews

"[A] lyrical thriller...this involving, thought-provoking page-turner raises disturbing questions about the nature of the stories people tell themselves to make sense of the world. Willingham remains an author to watch." -Publishers Weekly

"Pacey and sinister, All the Dangerous Things has a palpable tension that keeps the pages turning." -Karin Slaughter

"All the Dangerous Things explores the often devastating secrets within families, the hard days of early motherhood and the lies we not only tell each other, but ourselves. Packed full of twists and turns, I couldn't stop frantically turning the pages. Stacy is a must-read author for me now." -Sarah Pearse

"Brilliant! With a sure hand, the author draws us inexorably into a harrowing blend of gothic storytelling and psychological suspense, dishing up new shocks every time another layer is peeled back. I was as sleepless as our protagonist-since I had to finish this marvelous thriller in one sitting!" -Jeffery Deaver
