KIRKUS REVIEWS
Fiona Griffiths may be the most fascinating protagonist in fiction. She is similar to Lisbeth Salander, an intelligent but profoundly damaged young woman, but Fiona is less hostile and more curious, sort of a good guy sociopath. I couldn't put it down. This is definitely one of my very favorite thriller series. I love this character and I hope I have the chance to read many more. Harry Bingham is a genius and one hell of a writer.

Compelling ... a new crime talent to treasure
DAILY MAIL
Very exciting ... well informed and well written. Read this novel.
Literary Review
Gritty, compelling ... a [police] procedural unlike any other you are likely to read this year.
USA Today
Bingham's novels always contain something unexpected. This fast-moving novel contains some of the most ingenious murder methods in modern crime fiction.
Sunday Times
With Detective Constable Fiona 'Fi' Griffiths, Harry Bingham ... finds a sweet spot in crime fiction ... think Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander ... Denise Mina's 'Paddy' Meehan [or] Lee Child's Jack Reacher ... The writing is terrific.
Boston Globe
A stunner with precision plotting, an unusual setting, and a deeply complex protagonist ... We have the welcome promise of more books to come.
The Seattle Times
A dark delight, and I look forward to Fiona's future struggles with criminals, her demons and the mysteries of her past.
Washington Post
The easiest five stars I've ever awarded a book. Fiona Griffiths is by far the most original fictional detective I've come across ... [the book] made me feel breathless with worry, concern and eventually fear for Fiona.
Loretta Milan
An even more intense plot and richer character study than his first ... Fiona's past mental problems and her unconventional personality make her a distinctive lead.
Publishers Weekly, (starred review)
Some of the most memorably staccato narration in the genre ... [Bingham's] remote, unquenchable heroine makes her stand apart from every one of her procedural brothers and sisters.
Kirkus Reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed spending time in her company, and the cleaning scenes are utterly credible. There is wit here, and warmth, and great pace.
BOOK OXYGEN
"[THE STRANGE DEATH OF FIONA GRIFFITHS] confronts the reader with profound questions about human nature in the midst of a fast-paced plot."
SUNDAY TIMES
DC Fiona Griffiths is small, bullish and psychologically fragile - her vulnerability makes her much more interesting than the average gung-ho policewoman... A tense and unusual read."
THE LADY
"Good thrilling stuff."
BUZZ
"This thriller shines like a diamond."
PETERBOROUGH EVENING TELEGRAPH
"A thoroughly engrossing book that is as much the story as one woman's search for an identity as it is crime thriller."
SHOTS
"A series that started strongly but is definitely getting even better... Bingham has created a unique character, not Wales' answer to Rebus but better in a number of ways."
WESTERN MAIL
This is a police procedural with a twist. Quirky, gripping and, rather like its lead character, utterly unconventional. That's what makes it such a delight to read. Highly recommended.
