Editorial Reviews

Review

"* Praise for Bloody London: 'A writer who ranks alongside the best of Paretsky, and one who could easily inherit Cornwell's vacant crown.' Daily Express 'Superlative stortytelling, with writing so good taht you hardly dare turn the page in case it goes of fthe boil. Rest assured, it doesn't... Disquieting, timely, terrific.' Literary Review * Praise for Red Mercury Blues: 'Red Mercury Blues is a mine odf taut, snappy writing.' The Times 'A can't-put-me-down read.' Observer 'Red Mercury Blues has everything going for it... The slickness and quality of Nadelson's writing, and herr capacity to create atmosphere, the dialogue and the streets, apartments and dachas of New York and Moscow fairly zing with life.' Daily Telegraph A cracker of a story, original, well-written and fast-paced.' Sunday Times * Praise for Thin Ice 'This book is classy noir entertainment - edgy, witty, slickly plotted... She has a perfect pitch for the voice of her hard-boiled, jazz-loving, skirt-chasing hero.' Independent * Praise for Disturbed Earth: 'If this book doesn't wring out your guts with anxiety, you are made of stone. Reggle Nadelson knows how to raise the hair on your arms, and she does it with the authority and sureness of a natural born writer' Guardian"
