Rezensionen

'Classic Nicci French: an unputdownable missing-persons thriller that's also a searing examination of family, memory and grief. A big-skied, full-blooded, broken-hearted book' Erin Kelly

'As well as a fantastic mystery, Nicci French has written a powerful, moving and wise story about the damage that loss does to families, with characters you can't forget. I loved it' Jo Callaghan

'One of their very best. Compelling, moving and beautifully written, it's about how real people are affected by (and driven to) murder . . . Throw in a brilliantly cool London detective, Maud, and you have an absolute winner' The Observer

'Fans of the husband and wife writing team, Sean French and Nicci Gerrard, will need no encouragement to seize on this latest example of their rare talent. It's their 25th crime collaboration since 1997 and shows off their exceptional skills as storytellers . . . The French magic is at work again' Daily Mail
