Waxwork Reviews

Waxwork is quite the best novel of detection I have read for a long time - Ruth Rendell

Lovesey's backtwist plotting is pure Christie, but the style, the detail and the deadpan horror are all his own - and absolutely marvellous - Kirkus Reviews

As good a crime entertainment as you could wish for - HRF Keating, The Times

Marvellously authentic - Washington Post
