Critics Review

The best psychological thriller writer around.

This is a novel that will chill your blood on the warmest day of any summer holiday. Keep looking over your shoulder… - Independent on Sunday

The best psychological thriller writer around - The Times

Jeffery Deaver is a master at crafting intricate crimes that are solved through guile, tenacity and sheer creative genius. - Harlan Coben

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

There’s no question … about Deaver’s unexcelled ability to pull the wool over your eyes. When he describes a colorless, odorless glass of liquid as water, don’t assume it is until somebody drinks it down - or maybe till an hour later. - Kirkus Reviews on THE TWELFTH CARD
