Trade ReviewAncient history, violent deaths, feuds, intrigues and murder. A most original sleuth. * The Times *
A wonderful, enthralling read. Huge tensions. All too believable. You are there with poor Merrily every step of the way.
-- Barbara Erskine * Daily Express *
A first rate thriller with supernatural overtones . . . deftly illuminates the intrigues of village life. * Publishers Weekly *
