’Quality storytelling in this chilling Nordic thriller, tautly plotted with a clever twist.’---Fiona Noble THE BOOKSELLER
’It is an account of the power of weaponry to level a playing field, which is something you don’t often think about, but it is also a punchily written, first-rate action story’---Toby Clements THE TELEGRAPH
