"This can only add to her growing reputation as doyenne of English
mystery novelists. ... [S]ome particularly moving
moments."—Publishers Weekly
"A superbly paced, all-consuming treat.... George has the ability
to display and then dissect her characters in a painfully realistic
way. If dogged police work is what you demand from mysteries, hit
the sidewalk with these complicated British detectives."—USA
Today
"Wrenching ... George still stands several rungs up the ladder from
her more superficial rivals."—Kirkus Reviews
