First Lady Reviews

* 'Two of the most memorable police detectives to appear in mystery fiction' - Ed McBain * 'A stylish gift for language... tender and believable... the characters come alive' -Washington Post Book World * 'The Hammet-Chandler tradition is alive and well... all the right laconic flicks of humour, all the right humanity under the slick quickness that the old masters employed' - H R F Keating * 'Perhaps the best novelist of the New South... and one of the most distinctive talents to emerge in crime fiction.' - Guardian
