"My ideal literary thrillerNot only genuinely exciting, it is bursting with ideas and insights" Daily Mail "Absorbing and beautifully written" Daily Telegraph "A shivers-down-your-spine mystery...The book crackles with depictions of campus politics and strained relations between black and white America" Financial Times "A very rare thing indeed: an intellectually stimulating thriller by a writer who is as concerned with an exploration of character and motive as he is in ending each of his short mini-chapters with a cliffhanger" Irish Times
