Review

Praise for PERSONS UNKNOWN: `I loved it ... Persons Unknown is like walking on quicksand, for reader and detective alike' VAL MCDERMID `I doubt I'll read a better crime novel this year' MARK BILLINGHAM `Stylish, literary fiction at its very best' PETER JAMES `[Steiner] solidified the promise of last year's debut, Missing, Presumed, with another hyper-realistic police procedural' Guardian: Books of the Year 2017 `Susie Steiner goes from strength to strength: Persons Unknown is by turns tense and tender, gripping and moving, and always beautifully written. I didn't read this book so much as live it: DI Manon Bradshaw is so convincingly human that I often wonder what she's up to now' ERIN KELLY, author of He Said, She Said 'Bradshaw is an engaging heroine, full of self-doubt and contradiction, but whose caustic wit gleams through the grim murder inquiry' Daily Mail 'Steiner has a quirky, evocative prose style that is often very funny and her novels are highly entertaining and full of memorable, well-rounded characters' Sunday Express 'Winning prose, sympathetic characters and an appreciation of life's joys as keen as a knowledge of its dangers' Wall Street Journal 'A smart and funny rumination on motherhood' New York Times 'Strikingly modern...It is refreshing to see a detective grappling with real life dilemmas but they never get in the way of the plot, which is clever and original. A series to watch from a confident writer who draws even minor characters with care and sympathy' Sunday Times `The best new crime series in years' SARAH PERRY, author of The Essex Serpent `An ingeniously and extravagantly plotted, multi-voiced thrillride ... wise and witty ... beautifully written' Irish Times `Superb storytelling - a joy to read. I am hooked on Manon Bradshaw' RENEE KNIGHT, author of Disclaimer
