Critics Review

The Japanese Stieg Larsson - The Times

Intricate and beguiling…if you like riddles inside enigmas, it will please you no end. - Guardian on The Devotion of Suspect X

The plot is taut and intriguing…this psychological driver sets it apart from more run-of-the-mill crime thrillers…Agatha Christie would be mightily impressed. - Financial Times on The Devotion of Suspect X

Meticulous…a thriller hung on obsessional love and impeccable logic which drags you along with a teasing “how did he do it” logic…and the ending is a killer twist. - Metro on The Devotion of Suspect X
