Trade Review
It is a formidable, indeed a damning indictment and Wilkes presents the result of his detective work with journalistic panache. -- P. D. James * Times Literary Supplement *
Roger Wilkes's seminal book lays out the facts . . . one of the great unsolved murders of the century. -- Craig Taylor * Guardian *
I call it the impossible murder because Wallace couldn't have done it. And neither could anyone else. -- Raymond Chandler
Engrossingly readable. -- Christopher Pym
For once the blurb lives up to expectation. This is a real life whodunnit. * Solicitors' Journal *
If you're given to nightmares, read no further. Liverpool's notorious Wallace case is straight out of Poe or Kafka. -- Irene McManus * Guardian *
