Review Quotes




"A splendid book and perhaps a new benchmark for literary adaptations of screen stories." --Booklist

"David Hewson has achieved the seemingly impossible. His novelisation of the drama is a different take on the original . . . just as gripping as the television serial. Whether you missed, hated or love The Killing on TV, this book is worth reading." --Literary Review

"David Hewson--the author of more than a dozen detective novels set in Italy and with no need to stoop to anything too hurriedly commercial--has taken what was television gold and turned it into literary gold. This is one of the most engrossing detective novels I've read in a long time, with no easy solutions or insulting pay-offs and no easy moral to its story." --Telegraph

"Hewson has done an excellent job capturing the chilly flavor of Nordic noir... an excellent novelization of a hit Scandinavian TV series." --Library Journal
