Brilliant. PETERBOROUGH EVENING TELEGRAPH, 11 September; A clever piece of writing... hard to put down www reviewingtheevidence.com, September; Curl up with this gripping thriller WOMAN'S OWN, 13 September; Private investigator Tess Monaghan makes a welcome return CHOICE, October; A well-constructed mystery, unique characters, and a heavy dose of wit make this a good addition to the Monaghan series. Definitely recommended. DEADLY PLEASURES, Winter 04; Lippman tells her story through four separate points of view... she has structured it extremely well, revealing only just enough background information to keep the narrative moving, then springing a whole series of surprises. None of them is predictable and yet they're all convincing. With its background themes of racism, damaged children and family bitterness, this is a most impressive novel. SHERLOCK, Issue 64 2004
