Table of ContentsReviewsHall's heroine is believable enough to care about, and it's good to see a novel niche being carved in the crowded realm of whodunits. Perhaps it'll do for coroners' courts what CSI did for forensic science * Observer * A gripping debut novel * Daily Express * There's much to like here, including the unusual viewpoint, the strong narrative, and the solidly researched background * Spectator * A fast paced debut thriller * The Times * Congratulations to new crime fiction author Matthew Hall . . . A refreshing take on a historic office . . . Convincing and compelling * Daily Mail * Unputdownable debut introducing a fantastic, feisty and convincingly flawed heroine * Woman & Home * A brilliant, original and gripping crime novel - I can't wait for Matthew Hall's next one! -- Sophie Hannah This big, well-executed debut novel by screenwriter and producer Matthew Hall has meaty characters and a chewy plot in the Lynda La Plante style * Guardian * A compelling debut * Sainsburys Magazine * It's a tribute to the author's skill that I read this book supposing it to be autobiographical . . . He really gets under the skin of his heroine . . . Good and imaginative writing (and some political implications) to make an outstandingly interesting first novel * The Literary Review * Author InformationMatthew (formerly M. R.)
