From the Back Cover:
"As suspenseful and tautly written as any of her detective stories--the psychological twists and turns will tantalize the reader as cunningly as a well-paced clue." -The New York Times

"P.D. James steps into territory occupied by Truman Capote, Shelby Foote, Carson McCullers, even Henry James." -The New Republic

"A superior thriller--tingling with suspense, difficult to put down." -Newsday

"A transfixing psychological thriller filled with searing suspense, a multi-twist plot and a remorseless eye for our sometimes monstrous needs and drives--It packs a powerful wallop." -Mademoiselle

From the Inside Flap:
