Electrifying. * Crime Monthy. *
A gripping crime novel . . . fast-moving and packed with convincing detail and memorable characters . . . Tekla is a terrific character.
-- Natasha Cooper * Literary Review *As gripping as it could be. Stressed-out, sleep-deprived and pill-popping Dr Tekla Berg is as unusual a centra character as you will find . . . An authentic and seriously exciting debut.
