Recenzii
"It comes as no surprise to learn that Sansom's novel spent month after month on London's bestseller lists."
-The Philadelphia Inquirer
"There are touches of Graham Greene; Hemingway's here, too. . . . But Sansom transfigures his sources into a moral universe very much his own."
-The Independent (U.K.)
"Sansom [proves] real noir is best when lit with flashes of wit."
-Publishers Weekly
"Sansom can lay claim to a place among the best distinguished of modern historical novelists."
-P. D. James
