Praise for Deborah Crombie: "The strength of this series is in its characterizations, particularly those of James and Kincaid, as they balance the demanding work that they love and their family life. Another winner in a series that goes from one high point to another." -- Booklist (starred review)"Densely plotted and with a balanced interplay between the domestic sphere and the intrigue of police internal affairs. Contemporary and propulsive." -- Kirkus Reviews"Through several points of view, this multifaceted novel provides a sobering cautionary tale about the exploitation of idealism and the abuse of power." -- Publishers Weekly"The novel's title suggests sorrow, deep and debilitating, the kind of grief that chokes. It also alludes to Gethsemane and all that garden implies - betrayal, sacrifice and forgiveness. It's all here." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune"Garden of Lamentations moves at a brisk pace with acute attention to the details of both cases [...] a strong addition to an excellent series." -- SouthFlorida.com"'Garden of Lamentations' is a strong addition to an excellent series." -- Miami Herald"This is one of the best crime mystery novels of the season." -- Washington Book Review"[Crombie's] Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James characters are rich, emotionally textured, fully human. They are the remarkable creations of a remarkable writer." -- Louise Penny
