A fast-paced thriller . . . An impressive debut * FINANCIAL TIMES *
An astonishing, assured and terrifying debut. Many books have pretensions to be the next Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but Geiger actually delivers - reaching that level and beyond. Remarkable. * DAVID YOUNG, award-winning author of STASI CHILD *
Exciting, extremely clever, incredible. An instant classic * TOM MARCUS, bestselling author of SOLDIER SPY *
The very definition of a thriller. Plotting as good as Lee Child, pacing as good as Harlan Coben but with a completely original voice. Absolutely brilliant * HELEN FIELDS, author of PERFECT REMAINS *
If a fiendishly twisting tale floats your spy thriller boat, then the electrifying Geiger is guaranteed to spark a reading frenzy as Skördeman slowly and intriguingly reveals some hidden and disturbing truths, and ramps up the tension to breaking point * LANCASHIRE POST *
