Critics Review
‘While Billingham has well and truly mastered the modern police procedural, the thing that sets him apart from the crowd is not just his emotional insight, but the way he invariably packs such a heart-wrenching punch… Billingham’s most desperately gripping read yet [Mirror]
As fictional detectives go, Thorne is one of the most believable and Billingham’s deserved status as a world-class crime fiction writer will surely be confirmed when a new television series based on some of his novels is aired this autumn [Daily Mail]Billingham is well aware that we’re au fait with most police procedural scenarios and is always working to ring clever and inventive changes on the formula…the tension is fine-tuned with all the usual skill [Daily Express]Most fictional sleuths are flawed but invariably triumphant; Billingham is unusually willing to show his series hero making blunder after blunder [Sunday Times]About The Author
