Critics Review

The multi-faceted surprise ending to the taut, suspenseful plot is the juiciest plum in this can’t-put-down novel. - Publishers Weekly

She is a great storyteller. The totality is a big fat, satisfying book. - Frances Fyfield, Sunday Express

A compelling mystery,intricately plotted, with multiple twists and a satisfyingly devious finale. George is brilliant at juggling so many motives and so many suspects, keeping the reader enthralled, and coming up with such a clever solution. - Marcel Berlins, The Times

George’s nine best-selling novels of psychological suspense are burnished with the internationalism that is a result of dividing her time between California and London - The Times
