'Heartbreaking and harrowing in equal measure. Dr Jack Cuthbert is a brilliant, damaged genius you’ll want to follow to hell and back' -- Pauline McLean, BBC Scotland Arts Correspondent 'We liked that Allan was trying to take the crime novel to new and interesting places. The central character perfectly expresses the damage of both the period and his environment, and the author’s pathology background was skilfully deployed in this highly original thriller' -- Tariq Ashkanani, author and Bloody Scotland judge 'Deliciously dark, vividly visceral, heartbreakingly harrowing' -- Sharon Bairden 'I loved this mystery, slow burning and gripping. There’s a sense of doom, there’s a complex and damaged main character . . . vivid and well researched life of LGBT people and the medical procedures' * Scrapping & Playing blog * 'A fascinating yet gritty historical mystery with complex and compelling characters' * Ljwritesandreviews * 'Excellently paced and full of tension' * BooksbyBindu.com *
