"Brilliant" PETERBOROUGH EVENING TELEGRAPH, 11 September; "A clever piece of writing... hard to put down" www reviewingtheevidence.com, September; "Curl up with this gripping thriller" WOMAN'S OWN, 13 September; "Private investigator Tess Monaghan makes a welcome return" CHOICE, October; "A well-constructed mystery, unique characters, and a heavy dose of wit make this a good addition to the Monaghan series. Definitely recommended." DEADLY PLEASURES, Winter 04; "Lippman tells her story through four separate points of view... she has structured it extremely well, revealing only just enough background information to keep the narrative moving, then springing a whole series of surprises. None of them is predictable and yet they're all convincing. With its background themes of racism, damaged children and family bitterness, this is a most impressive novel." SHERLOCK, Issue 64 2004
