Reviews
"Excellent New Zealand crime fiction. His ability to communicate with his audience and allow them to see, hear, feel touch and taste what is happening on the page is as uncommon as it is satisfying."
Graham Beattie. Beattie's Book Blog
"I could add it to the 'trophy shelf' along with the few other titles I think are utterly remarkable."
