'In this superior, self-deprecating thriller, the workings of the plot are secondary to the elegiac realism of the story' * Daily Telegraph * 'Edric is a terrific storyteller but he also provides a pretty accurate picture of modern-day crime and the way that it affects so many people. Impressive stuff' * Observer * 'Edric keeps his readers - and Rivers - dangling on a tangled string' * Scotsman * 'Edric shows his mastery over the complexities of a crime thriller ... Classic whodunit territory and lovers of the genre will find Siren Song right up their street' * Yorkshire Evening Post *
