Reviews for The Murder Book: The incredibly dramatic Sunday Times Tom Thorne bestseller
Anthony Horowitz
The sense of mounting dread would be unbearable were it not for Billingham's black humour that somehow highlights rather than undermines his sensitive depiction of the consequences of crime. The Murder Book [is] a brilliant thriller by a writer at the top of his game
