Reviews
"... an excellent crime novel. It is compact and well-written, and the plot is superbly crafted... Jon Atli's greatest strength lies in the characters he has created. Dora and Rado are both interesting and exceptionally appealing... This captivating story is exciting from beginning to end, and for various reasons that cannot be disclosed, one can hardly wait for the next book."
