Critics Review

Probably the best book he’s ever written … Enough of Deaver’s trademark twists to satisfy his most diehard fans … A great read. - Observer

At first this seems to be simply a superbly orchestrated chase novel … But then, as shock follows shock, a complex mystery unfolds, literally overnight. The plot twists are sudden, dazzling and unexpected, and climax in a breathtaking finale. - Scotsman

[The plot] is like opening up a Russian doll, and it’s typical of Deaver’s polished, clever entertainment. - Sunday Telegraph

The best psychological thriller writer around. - The Times

The most creative, skilled and intriguing thriller writer in the world … [Deaver] has produced a stunning series of bestsellers with unique characterisation, intelligent characters, beguiling plots and double-barrelled and sometimes triple-barrelled solutions. - Daily Telegraph
