Trade ReviewAs gripping as the TV series. It will keep you pinned to very last page. -- Jens Lapidus
David Hewson has achieved the seemingly impossible . . . just as gripping as the television serial . . . this book is worth reading * The Literary Review *
A novel in the hugely experienced hands of David Hewson that defies expectation. Hewson’s style is tight, lean, almost like a film script. * Express *
Clear, clipped prose is beautifully up to the task, as is his forensic attention to the original's details . . . And the ending leaves a very different, but no less thought-provoking taste. * Mirror *
David Hewson should be commended for writing such a page-turner of a book . . .
The Killing has enough twists and turns to satisfy not only any avid follower of the series but also readers that are coming to it first time around. * www.shotsmag.co.uk *
