Recensione:
"Each Max Camara novel is a treat to savour" (Mark Billingham)
"A superbly balanced novel, it conveys a wonderful sense of Spain... [Webster] does for the country what Michael Dibdin did for Italy -- pure joy from first page to last" (Geoffrey Wansell Daily Mail)
"A gripping, intriguing thriller that beautifully evokes non-tourist Spain" (Sun)
"If you’re tiring of the frigid climate of Scandinavian crime fiction, a welcome antidote may be found in Jason Webster’s sultry (and elegantly written) Max Cámara series set in Spain. This third entry is the most accomplished yet" (Barry Forshaw Financial Times)
"Neatly and inexorably Webster links murder, present and past... Dialogue is stark" (Gwen Moffat Shots Mag)
