Recenzii

Morpuss overlays sci-fi concepts on the conventions of vintage crime fiction [and] arrives at a satisfying destination
An intriguing take on an Agatha Christie-type locked-room mystery
A delicious, sophisticated puzzle you'll want to take your time to solve. It gripped me for a week. Incredible!
A very enjoyable read. An endlessly inventive murder mystery - gripping from the first page!
Guy Morpuss is quickly establishing himself as a key player in the speculative fiction genre. A very clever and brilliantly imagined locked room mystery
Dizzyingly brilliant... had me gripped from the start. If you like your crime stories to dazzle with unique settings, genius plotting, great characterisation and sublime speculative twists, this is the book for you!
A mind-bendingly brilliant read that reinvents the locked room mystery. Imagine Agatha Christie on speculative steroids. I loved it!
A refreshingly original locked room mystery that exceeds all expectations
Wow! A deeply unique experience. I love it
