Curtain Call: Now adapted into a major film as THE CRITIC starring Ian McKellan

This is an utterly delightful read, made to appear easy, effortless and brilliantly suspenseful, while never becoming predictable or cosy…. I can’t recommend this book highly enough. -- Viv Groskop ― Observer

It had me on the edge of my seat. The only disappointment…is when the curtain finally has to come down -- Peter Stanford ― Daily Telegraph (five stars)

Night after night for a happy week, Quinn filled my dreams with glossy surfaces and hidden vices, silk stockings and champagne and intellectual snobberies and long walks home on hard London pavements. Anyone who paces the West End streets will find them more haunted after reading this book. -- Libby Purves ― New Statesman

Curtain Call is a beautifully written, absorbing work of historical fiction. -- James Kidd ― Independent

Curtain Call goes from gripping you lightly to gripping you tightly. Both in its construction and its characters there is more going on beneath the surface than first appears. -- Dominic Maxwell ― The Times

This book is utterly pleasing from the first page to the last. -- Sadie Jones ― Guardian

This is unputdownable. -- Eithne Farry ― Sunday Express

Sharp period detail and clever pacing all add up to some rather excellent entertainment. -- Anthony Cummins ― Metro

An elegant literary 1930s murder mystery. ― Bookseller

Quirky, charming and full of atmosphere. ― Good Housekeeping
