Praise for PERSONS UNKNOWN:
`I loved it ... Persons Unknown is like walking on quicksand, for reader and detective alike' VAL MCDERMID
`I doubt I'll read a better crime novel this year' MARK BILLINGHAM
`Stylish, literary crime fiction at its very best' PETER JAMES
`[Steiner] solidified the promise of last year's debut, Missing, Presumed, with another hyper-realistic police procedural' Guardian: Books of the Year 2017
`Susie Steiner goes from strength to strength: Persons Unknown is by turns tense and tender, gripping and moving, and always beautifully written. I didn't read this book so much as live it: DI Manon Bradshaw is so convincingly human that I often wonder what she's up to now' ERIN KELLY, author of He Said, She Said
'Bradshaw is an engaging heroine, full of self-doubt and contradiction, but whose caustic wit gleams through the grim murder inquiry' Daily Mail
'Steiner has a quirky, evocative prose style that is often very funny and her novels are highly entertaining and full of memorable, well-rounded characters' Sunday Express
'Winning prose, sympathetic characters and an appreciation of life's joys as keen as a knowledge of its dangers' Wall Street Journal
'A smart and funny rumination on motherhood' New York Times
'Strikingly modern...It is refreshing to see a detective grappling with real life dilemmas but they never get in the way of the plot, which is clever and original. A series to watch from a confident writer who draws even minor characters with care and sympathy' Sunday Times
`The best new crime series in years' SARAH PERRY, author of The Essex Serpent
`An ingeniously and extravagantly plotted, multi-voiced thrillride ... wise and witty ... beautifully written' Irish Times
`Superb storytelling - a joy to read. I am hooked on Manon Bradshaw' RENEE KNIGHT, author of Disclaimer
