Praise for this book
"A brilliant tale of psychological suspense, Bunny Lake Is Missing is a classic thriller--a riveting revisit to the dark side of the fifties, where the tension beneath the calm surface has an undertow that drags the reader into its grip. Prime pulp--pure pleasure." --Linda Fairstein, author of The Bone Vault "A beautiful job . . . frantic scenes of action, contagious terror and near hysteria." --San Francisco Chronicle "Evelyn Piper . . . master of taut and impelling writing, [presents] a headlong story of nerve-wracking tension, psychological validity and emotional drive." --Oakland Tribune "The distraught, gusty, and hip mother I played in Bunny Lake Is Missing is my all-time favorite role." --Carol Lynley
