A sleek, contemporary novel ... Blincoe captures the fast pace, the insecurity and the mounting tension as showtime nears. And he gets the people, too ... If you want to know more about those creatures called models, well, Blincoe's your man * Honor Fraser, New Statesman *
References to pop culture and the fashion world are perfectly integrated into the characters in this assured thriller * Christopher Silvester, Daily Mail *
Blincoe continues to write books as up-to-the-minute as tomorrow's newspapers ... an accomplished achievement. * Thomas Hodgkinson, Literary Review *
A dark tour de force which marks out Nicholas Blincoe as one of the most exciting talents writing in Britain today. * Wayne Clews, Attitude *
A beautifully tailored, cool combination of needs, wants, suspicion and double crossing. If you believe in love, death and fashion, read it. * Northern Woman magazine *
Blincoe is an excellent writer * Chris Power, The Times *
Meticulous, exact and beautifully written. * Literary Review *
If Jim Thompson had ever written a Bret Easton Ellis novel, White Mice would have been it. * Book Review *
