Product Description
Review
A genuinely original and imaginative writer, [Fyfield] offers a fascinating read... An admirable crime novel Literary Review Fyfield is routinely and rightly praised for her elegant prose... What doesn't get mentioned so often is that when it comes to the dissection of the human spirit, she is the most brutal scalpel-wielder we have...one of Highsmith's true heirs The Guardian Blood From Stone has all the complexity you'd expect from this award-winning grande dame of crime fiction - she's up there with Rendell, James, McDermid and Walters... Simply terrific Observer As always, Fyfield leaves her readers with shivers that take a long time to go away' The Times 'Among her myriad literary skills, Frances Fyfield is adept at creating blood-chilling psychopaths. Like her American predecessor Patricia Highsmith, she takes us deep into their twisted psychology'

5.0 out of 5 stars
blood from stone, Aug 8 2009
By Mildred Depallo - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Blood from Stone (Hardcover)
Fyfield has done it again. She is the greatest legal procedural author, and her plotting is outstanding. Devilishly dark, but never unlikely.
Listmania!
