Reviews

An authentically disturbing, gripping winner

—— Financial Times

With Mo Hayder you never know where you are going until you get there. A chiller to the very end

—— The Times

She handles the plot with all the expertise and flair that her earlier work leads you to expect

—— Sunday Times

Hayder is an excellent writer ... She has the priceless ability to keep you turning the pages ... especially with the novel's sly and beautifully finessed twist in the tail

—— Spectator

Reichs' seamless blending of fascinating science and dead-on psychological portrayals, not to mention a whirlwind of a plot, make [her novels] a must read

—— Jeffery Deaver

Popular fiction at its best

—— The Washington Post

Only one's dreams after a champagne-fuelled night at the Follies Bergere have quite the same nightmarish-but-entertaining quality as Vargas's delightful crime novels

—— Jake Kerridge , Daily Telegraph

Gripping

—— Guardian

[Vargas is] one of the most exciting, addictive and inventive purveyor of classy crime fiction currently pounding the publishing beat... It it a highly entertaining policier but more importantly, as with Conan Doyle, the wacky world Vargas shapes is oddly reassuring: a great remedy to a grey day

—— Christian House , Indepedent on Sunday

A thrilling read

—— Sunday Times

A beguiling story

—— Independent on Sunday

A sinister, beguiling tale that brilliantly evokes a childhood world

—— Woman and Home

Brilliant and nightmarish, this modern fairytale is beautifully written

—— Eve Magazine

Phantom will maintain Jo Nesbo’s unstoppable momentum.

—— The Independent

The king of Nordic crime – and his haunted protagonist Harry Hole – returns with this tightly plotted thriller which pitches Hole deep into the murky underworld of Oslo’s heroin market.

—— Metro

Jo Nesbo is at the top of his game... The must-read thriller of 2012.

—— Bella

Phantom leaves us reeling, with a storyline and ending that hurts us almost as much as it hurts the protagonists... The twists and turns show Nesbo at his complicated, yet utterly accessible best, and Hole at his undeniably brilliant but self-destructive worst.

—— The List

Jo Nesbo is a master of his craft. His latest novel, Phantom, is world-class crime writing. Phantom is a crime novel that pleases on every level.

—— Dagbladet (Norway)

Harry Hole is back only to find that the case he wants to investigate is already closed

—— Observer

Jo Nesbo has done it again with Phantom, his seventh gripping novel featuring Inspector Harry Hole... Tense and compulsive Phantom will have you jumping out of your seat

—— Hannah Britt , Daily Express

King of Scandinavian crime... A writer at the top of his game

—— Deirdre O’Brien , Sunday Mirror
