Reviews
'The novels successfully combine the style of the traditional English detective story with a darker noir sensibility.'
'Martin Edwards is one of the finest stylists and most perceptive crime writers of his generation. His gifts are of the more classical variety--there are points in his novels when I think I'm reading Graham Greene--and that recognition has begun to attract the attention of book buyers as it has so long attracted the attention of reviewers.'
'First rate...Martin Edwards writes terrific crime novels'
'A clever psychological thriller'
'Martin is increasingly recognised as one of Britain's most exciting crime writers'
'Edwards' mastery of the psychological thriller is as assured as ever'
'a first rate complex thriller'
'Very highly recommended'
'The insights into contemporary society are as sharp as the dark and discursive plotting.'
'Ambitious, nuanced and brimful of Lake Country atmosphere -- Edwards always gives top value'
'Martin Edwards is up there with the Masters.'
'The picturesque qualities of Northern England's touristy area are fabulously described, and make a superior scenic backdrop for this otherwise dark tale of labyrinthine convoluted relationships and secrets galore, all waiting to be unearthed by skilled scavengers....'
