LoveReading Says
The first in this series, Talking to the Dead, introduced us to a most unusual police detective, Fiona Griffiths, who suffers from Cotard’s Syndrome and hides a dramatic past which will no doubt be revealed over the series. Certainly a large chunk comes here as she searches for her real parents. Fiona is weird … delightfully so and sees the world at a slightly different angle to most people. It is her weirdness that makes these books stand out, and her first-person narrative that draws us in. They are Welsh-based which is lovely, full of plot which races along with lots of offshoots and lots left open for the next one. What a great book but I must urge you to read the first which is even better.

Harry Bingham Press Reviews
This compelling crime novel... amply proves the freshness and flair that he [Bingham] has brought to the police procedural. Written with unexpected warmth and wry observation, it brings its gruesome story to life without turning the stomach. ..Surprisingly delicate, it weaves a sinuous, seductive spell and confirms we have a new crime talent to treasure. - DAILY MAIL
They say there is nothing new under the sun... I have to say that in a lifetime of reading crime fiction I have never come across anyone quite like Fiona Griffiths... Read this book. Enjoy every syllable. Hold your breath, and tick off the weeks until the next one. - CRIME FICTION LOVER
There is a complex and very clever double mystery here, and what makes the story unique is the parallel unraveling of Fiona's own mystery, and it's her voice, established precisely in the first book but given even freer rein here, that makes it so compelling. - TANGLED WEB
Superbly compulsive! - PETERBOROUGH EVENING TELEGRAPH
