Praise for Pretty Little Wife:
"If you’re looking for one of the best and tightly-plotted thrillers you’ll read this year, let me introduce you to Pretty Little Wife."

“Debut mystery author Kane blends tense domestic suspense with procedural details and legal thriller–like verbal sparring. A page-turner built on skillfully layered plotting and an intriguing protagonist.”

Praise for The Replacement Wife:
"Darby Kane deserves credit for dispensing with anything resembling a slow burn in THE REPLACEMENT WIFE. There is a rollicking, almost absurdist tone to Kane's writing that kept me engaged, [saving] room for a final surprise I didn't foresee."
- New York Times
"Gaslighting and unreliable narrators are common in contemporary psychological thrillers, but Kane uses her relatable characters and tightly calibrated pacing (as she did in Pretty Little Wife, 2019) to give her story a compelling edge."
