Trade Review
Her best yet... Andrea conjures up a phenomenal sense of place. She is such an assured, stylish writer and The Body Falls is remarkably gripping
As wonderful as I expected. Tense, atmospheric, claustrophobic, it grips the reader ever tighter as its mystery deepens
Praise for the Inishowen mysteries:
Atmospheric and vivid * Irish Times *
I adored this traditional crime novel; it's modern day Agatha Christie with Ben as Miss Marple * Irish Examiner *
The colourful cast of characters may be fictional, but the landscapes, towns and villages are instantly recognisable * Irish Daily Mail *
A beguiling heroine - clever, sympathetic and bearing a weight of guilt * The Times *
