Review:
An engrossing read. * Sunday Telegraph * About as good as the British private eye novel gets. * Time Out * Complex and satisfying. * The Sunday Times * Modest, compassionate ... a solid ingenious plotter with a sharp eye for domestic detail. * Literary Review * PRAISE FOR CATH STAINCLIFFEA book about courage and compromise, about how sometimes it's kinder and braver to lie. Stunning. * Anne Cleeves *
