A riveting tale.
The Times
An intriguing set-up, involving a cast of suspects where everyone has something to hide.
The Sunday Times
Perfectly pitched and elegantly plotted, it has all Billingham’s hallmarks, and should not be missed.’
The Daily Mail
Intense, voyeuristic and loaded with popular culture, this unashamed good read is sure to prove a hit.
The Sun
To say much more would be to deprive the reader of the jaw-dropping twists and turns that herald the climax of this immensely entertaining, masterfully constructed novel – which ends, most un-Christie like, on an unnerving note of perfectly judged irresolution.
The Irish Times
Mark Billingham is a very clever writer and all the characters in this book are rounded and credible
Literary Review
One of Billingham’s most unconventional, intriguing and entertaining books.
Jake Kerridge – Daily Express.
One of the best crime novels of the year so far. Shocking, frightening, gripping.
Sunday Irish Independent
This is a terrific and unconventional addition to Billingham’s oeuvre, packed with colourfully drawn, wittily observed characters who never lapse into stereotypes . . . [a] satisfyingly unusual crime novel.
