"Bad Blood has a vividly drawn cast of characters, each of whom has motives to get back at their father. The tension is high, as the truth is slowly revealed. You sympathise with them (to some extent), you judge them (quite a lot), you hope that they succeed in their plans." Chez Maximka

"It is one of those books where you get so busy following the characters and what is hapening to them, that only after having finished the book, you start thinking about the message. For me, it was about parenthood, family ties and being (or not) being there for each other at the right moment. It is about life - it changes each and every one of us, but we have a say in how." Reading Tonic
"'Bad Blood' by Lily Hayden is a psychological thriller with plenty of twists and turns" Sharon Beyond the Books
