Rezensionen
'Wildly clever and evocative, I adored it' Angela Clarke

'Rubin deserves top marks for originality and for braving such a niche literary format . . . what really stands out is the masterful way the tales are cemented together. Believable characters and accomplished characterization add to the suspense, and with Rubin's expressive and easily digestible prose both stories can appreciated as old-fashioned murder mysteries' The Lady

'Murder, mystery and secrets combine to create a dazzling achievement that will hook you in' Best Magazine

'It's an incredible book, it's so different. It's unlike anything I've read before' Quick Book Reviews Podcast

'You will feel yourself being drawn into the lives of the main characters and you will find it very difficult to put the books down' South London Press

'The Turnglass is a narrative of mysterious beauty, locking two very different writing styles to tell two very different stories that are linked so, so very elegantly' Shots
