Critics Review

The lively beginning … broadens out into an excellent whodunnit, matched by the terrific down-at-heel atmosphere of postwar Brighton - The Times (on Smoke and Mirrors)

Original, lively and gripping - Independent (on Smoke and Mirrors)

Mixes cosiness and sharpness in a way that recalls the best of Agatha Christie - Sunday Express (on Smoke and Mirrors)
