What They're Saying

Critics Review

An efficient and fast-paced police procedural, technically superb from its gripping opening to its climax. Billingham, who knows exactly what he’s doing with his material, has the recipe just right [Guardian]

Another fine addition to Billingham’s formidably assured body of work [Daily Mail]

The revelations about the killer are totally unexpected - and proof that Mark Billingham is still top of the tree [Express]

I found my heart racing as I read the last few chapters. I cannot remember the last time that happened to me while reading crime fiction…Tom Thorne is now definitely one of my favourite modern fictional detectives [The Bookbag.co.uk]
