Reviews

The Finder Mysteries are everything great crime fiction aspires to be: human, intricate and hugely entertaining. The Woman Who Laughed kept me guessing, to the last page, and kept me thinking long after that. Simon Mason is a master storyteller whose books should be on every serious reader's wishlist. -- Sarah Hilary Mason brings to life Sheffield's red-light district, while Finder's quest awakens sleeping dogs with devastating consequences * Mail on Sunday * Simon Mason's Finder mysteries are well-written, elegantly-structured and unputdownable, bringing shades of Simenon's Maigret to contemporary rain soaked Britain * Daunt Books * Simon Mason packs more into 200 pages than many writers do at twice the length. Kudos. * The Times * [Mason] has struck gold with his laconic, just-the-facts Finder mysteries, about a freelance investigator brought in by police to track missing people * The Sun (Crime & Thriller special) * [T]ranslates the ethos of Georges Simenon's Maigret into an English setting: concise, richly characterised, impeccably plotted -- Barry Forshaw (The Best of Summer Crime, Financial Times) Crime fans are hooked on Mason's tight and gripping novellas * Peterborough Telegraph * Dark, exquisite and utterly absorbing, The Finder Mysteries are a rare and special thing * Russ Thomas *
