Critics Review

Dark, tense and pacy, McDermid’s fans will love this

Dark, tense and pacy, McDermid’s fans will love this * Irish Sunday Mirror *McDermid is as smooth a practitioner of crime fiction as anyone out there * New York Times Book Review *McDermid earns her customary high marks for planting clues, mastering procedural detail and maintaining suspense as the net closes. As usual, however, the endlessly fraught relationships among the continuing characters are the real draw. * Kirkus Reviews *McDermid’s fiendishly clever eighth novel featuring forensic psychologist Tony Hill and detective Carol Jordan… is not to be missed * Publisher’s Weekly *The book can be read as a story about a hunter/ killer. But it is also a fascinating study of his opponents, the infinitely complex Hill and the clever Sleuth Jordan * Literary Review *
