Review
When the barrier between Heloise's two lives starts to crumble, the results are mesmerizing. Lippman writes with clarity and power. -- Stephen King

Laura Lippman is not just the author of top-notch psychological thrillers, she is one of the finest writers in America. Simple as that. -- Mark Billingham

What a knock-out she is. A really superb multifaceted storyteller whose Baltimore based crime and suspense novels are so much more than mere whodunits. ―
Daily Mail

Gripping . . . The tightly constructed prose carries the reader easily along from chapter to chapter all the while building tension. There's a twist in the tale, too. ―
Irish Independent

It's no surprise to find Ms. Lippman writing about a smart, capable woman who is overqualified for what she does. Ms. Lippman's own career might be described that way. ―
New York Times

A gritty story, vivid characters and a fast-moving, twisting plot. ―
Washington Independent Review of Books
