Ian Hamilton’s great new Ava Lee mystery has the same wow factor as its five predecessors. The plot is complex and fast-paced, the writing tight, and its protagonist is one of the most interesting female avengers to come along in a while. -- Lesley McAllister * NOW Magazine * …the series as a whole is as good as the modern thriller genre gets. -- David Worsley * The Cord * entertaining series -- Athena McKenzie * Zoomer *
