Review :
"There is no one writing crime who is better at the minutiae of day to day living than Harvey, making small details come alive, but more importantly, using the life those details provide to reveal his characters and his story. ... This is what Harvey is a master at doing, perhaps better than any crime writer in Britain, detailing the impact of society on real people, while chronicling crime and punishment within it ... This is one of John Harvey's best novels, which means it's one of the best, full stop." -- Michael Carlson Crime Time "An atmospheric tale about lightning striking twice" Literary Review "In a skilled writer's imaginings even the commonplace seems freshly minted and Harvey is one of those writers...Harvey's fleshed-out characters and sure grasp of the complex emotional underpinnings of society generally, and individuals in particular, make him a favourite among crime writers and readers alike" Daily Mail "All Harvey's usual virtues - strong minor characters, likeable, three-dimensional cops, adroit handling of a complex plot and large cast - are in evidence" -- John Dugdale Sunday Times "Harvey is a master craftsman" Guardian
