'A crime tale with an emotional core.'
*The Herald*
'A crime series that specialises in sidestepping conventions,
always to exhilarating effect. These books succeed in harnessing
all the genre's addictive power while maintaining a complexity and
fascination entirely their own.'
*The Independent*
'Nothing's quite as it seems, except Hill's brilliantly compelling
prose.'
*Daily Mirror*
'Susan Hill's Serrailler novels, with their persuasively-drawn
copper and his equally well-rounded family, are real treats.'
*The Daily Express*
'Susan Hill is extremely rare if not unique in having achieved
enormous literary success in two genres, that of so-called straight
novels and crime fiction ... Deeply engrossing and enjoyable.'
*The Lady*
