Reviews

Nail-biting stuff
Daily Mail
Here is not merely an extraordinary first but an extraordinary suspense novel by the highest professional standards; and you have an evening of incomparable excitement ahead of you. Levin combines great talent for pure novel writing with strict whodunit tricks as dazzling as anything brought off by Ellery Queen or Agatha Christie
