Media Reviews
Immensely readable, bright...P.D. James is capable of handling her themes with astonishing clarity: not to simplify things for us, but to give us the crisp honesty of her novelistic perceptions. -- The New York Times Book Review Subtle, rich, allusive, and positively Shakespearean. -- The New York Times A superbly crafted psychological story of a search for identity, revenge and redemption. -- Toronto Star As suspenseful and tautly written as any of her detective stories -- the psychological twists and turns will tantalize the reader as cunningly as a well-paced clue. -- The New York Times P.D. James steps into territory occupied by Truman Capote, Shelby Foote, Carson McCullers, even Henry James. -- The New Republic A superior thriller--tingling with suspense, difficult to put down. -- Newsday A transfixing psychological thriller filled with searing suspense, a multi-twist plot and a remorseless eye for our sometimes monstrous needs and drives -- It packs a powerful wallop. -- Mademoiselle
