Praise for Twisted at the Root "Hart uses the characters introduced in this installment of her long-running series to ramp up the creepiness." --Kirkus Reviews "Enjoyable . . . Distinctive characters and solid plotting underscore the strength of this long-running series." --Publishers Weekly "This intricately plotted mystery is filled with a cast of lying characters . . . it's obvious why Mystery Writers of America named her a Grand Master." --Library Journal "Hart excels at making even ancillary characters fully realized. The prose is top notch and the plot complex and air-tight. The identity of the killer will come as a surprise to even the hard-core mystery aficionados. Another solid addition to Hart's long-running series." --The Prairies Book Review "Jane Lawless is truly a classic detective for the ages." --Aunt Agatha's Praise for Ellen Hart and The Jane Lawless Series "A top novelist in the cultishly popular gay mystery genre." -- Entertainment Weekly "Hart, the veteran crime writer, presents her central character, Jane Lawless, with such consistent and off-handed good humour that readers hardly notice the trails she and her character have blazed." -- The Toronto Star "[A] truly engaging mystery series."-- Library Journal "A good mystery engages our moral imaginations. Hart always has done this well through the diverse mix of gay and non-gay characters that populate her fictional world and the meaningful contemporary themes they confront." --Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Arguably one of the best lesbian mystery writers out there." -- The Advocate
