Critics Review

Give her a good murder and a shameful social evil, and Anne Perry can write a Victorian mystery that would make Dickens’ eyes pop out. - New York Times Book Review

A page-turning thriller… blending compelling plotting with superbly realized human emotion. - Jeffery Deaver

There is a freshness about [Perry’s] writing which makes it truly exceptional and I was gripped until the final page. Death on Blackheath was one of the best books I’ve read this year and I cannot recommend it highly enough. - Eurocrime
