Review:
"It’s all rather delightfully bonkers, a playful and subversively unorthodox take on the private eye novel by a master of her craft" (Declan Burke Irish Times)
"[Vargas] has won the CWA international dagger four times, confirming her place in the top rank of contemporary crime writers... [A Climate of Fear] is easily the best thing she has ever done... The idea of history repeating itself is at the heart of this stunning novel, which confirms Vargas’ fine understanding of the unchanging nature of human passions." (Sunday Times)
"One of the most entertainingly eccentric of all current European crime writers... Highly impressive." (Independent)
"Vargas writes with strength, erudition and unique imagination... In the crowded world of crime fiction, she's a valuable one-off." (The Times)
