Review:
'Atkinson, while having fun with the murder-mystery genre, slyly slips us a muted tragedy.' -- Sunday Telegraph
'Her gift is in presenting this unnerving and subversive philosophy as a dazzling form of entertainment.' -- Sunday Times
'High suspense and rattling pace...charged with adrenalin and a spry humour.' -- Financial Times
'Kate Atkinson is an absolute must read. I love everything she writes.' -- Harlan Coben
'Very funny...Manages to be that rarest of things – a good literary novel and a cracking holiday read.’ -- Observer
An absolute joy to read...Atkinson’s wry, unvanquished characters, her swooping, savvy, sarcastic prose and authorial joie de vivre.' -- Guardian
