Critics Review
The wittiest of detective writers
The wittiest of detective writers * Daily Mail *Heyer’s characterisation and dialogue are an abiding delight to me … I have seldom met people to whom I have taken so violent a fancy from the word Go. – Dorothy L. SayersA writer of great wit and style … I’ve read her books to ragged shreds. * Daily Telegraph *Rarely have we seen humour and mystery so perfectly blended. * New York Times *We had better start ranking her alongside such incomparable whodunit authors as Christie, Marsh, Tey and Allingham. * San Francisco Chronicle *
