Trade ReviewFowler always manages to keep things fresh, and
Hall of Mirrors is no exception . . . as well written and original as ever. * CRIME FICTION LOVER *
'Laugh-out-loud funny . . . long-running, eccentric and consistently entertaining. * BOOKLIST *
The prequel to end all prequels, wonderfully literate, fully of great dialogue and, at times, very poignant. Top quality entertainment. * FULLY BOOKED *
Distinctively bonkers while never straying away from an intriguing mystery that keeps the reader guessing . . . the resolution is a bit of a cracker . . . another winner from Christopher Fowler and his merry curmudgeons . . . Highly Recommended. * CLASSIC MYSTERY *
More fully fleshed-out suspects, clues, red herrings, twists, and honest mystery and detection than in the last three whodunits you read. * KIRKUS REVIEWS *
