“A novel whose supsense remains high until the final pages…Anne Perry is [a] master of crime fiction, who rarely fails to deliver a strong story and a colorful cast of characters.”
“A twisted root indeed.”
“When a law flies in the face of moral justice, can a person be condemned for defying it—even to the point of murder? Anne Perry argues the issue with uncommon eloquence.”
