"Published by Barrington Stoke, whose books are designed to entice less confident readers, the novel runs to little more than 100 pages, and much of the plot unravels in brisk, economical dialogue … What Strange sacrifices in psychological depth, however, she makes up for in pace and plotting. And the result is a swift, highly readable mystery, which treats murder less as a moral catastrophe than as the catalyst for some innocent detective work." –
