Reviews
Praise for Barbara Nadel's previous novels: An unusual and very well written first novel...Although the murder mystery is intriguing, it is the characters who make this book so successful * Sunday Telegraph *
Ikmen will go far...will have you looking over your shoulder * Scotsman *
Exciting, accomplished and original * Literary Review *
My crime reader is raving about this author * Bookseller *
A thriller that presents a Middle Eastern city populated by human beings, rather than specimens of oriental exotica, and a British writer who can get inside a foreign skin * Independent *
Mixing Ikmen's police work with parapsychology, blood and intuition makes for a read that is as riveting as it is undeniably disturbing * Good Book Guide *
Idiosyncratic and evocative * The Times *
Full of complex characters and louche atmosphere * Independent *
