Industry Reviews
"Val McDermid...generates not suspense, exactly, but curiosity and, finally, whiplash surprise. Her focus is on the inner lives of her policemen as they come to terms with bottom-of-hell horror and grave error."
Atlantic Monthly - Jack Beatty (10/20/2000)
"Val McDermid's elegiac study of a heinous crime and its aftermath...is very much in the Jamesian mode, both in its inventive use of the devices of detection and its mournful view of murder as a moral reckoning."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (10/09/2000)
"[P]ossibly the most ingenious mystery I've read... [S]tarts out as a classic English police procedural, then ventures, in the last one hundred pages, into something like pop metafiction, providing a startling new angle on everything that has gone before. It knocked the wind out of me."
Salon - Charles Taylor (01/03/2000)
