Media Reviews
'Freeman consistently hits his thriller marks, keeping the action coming and the tension high... The height of guilty pleasures' -- Kirkus Reviews 20060801 'A strong narrative, rife with sex and violence' -- Publishers Weekly 20060807 'An intelligently structured mystery, rich in evocation and authentic characterisation qualifies as good literature... Superbly engineered and supported by fast and revealing dialogue, the narrative is distinguished by powerful characterisation that breathes life into every actor; real people with real psychological baggage. Raunchy, erotic, captivating - the mystery compounds with every chapter end!If Stripped is any indication, we can look forward to a whole crop of brilliant serial crime novels from this author featuring a very human Jonathan Stride.' -- The Courier Mail (Australia) 20061218
