Rezensionen

It's a new island and a new chapter for Perez and his family, but in the extraordinary hands of Ann Cleeves - surely one of our greatest ever crime writers? - the result is predictably brilliant. It's new but familiar. Exciting but comforting. It's a masterpiece in character and location - welcome back Jimmy Perez! M. W. Craven, bestselling author of Nobody's Hero
