'Pacy, well written and full of the author's trademark twists and surprises, this is vintage Deaver' (Daily Express)
'Passages of tense action alternate enjoyably with this continuing guessing game in a novel that is brilliantly plotted.' (The Sunday Times)

This is the perfect accompaniment on a winter's night, curled up on the sofa with a glass of your favourite tipple.' (Sun)

'There is no one better at wrong-footing the reader.' (Evening Standard)
Confirms his status as one of the finest crime writers in the world . . . grabs the reader by the throat from the beginning. Superb. (Independent on Sunday on THE BODIES LEFT BEHIND)
