The Stonebreakers Avis
The Stonebreakers 'Hook's art-world thriller revolves around a simple but imaginative premise ... Hook certainly knows his stuff and it is his convincing re-creation of the insular and often petty-minded art world that sets this book apart' The Sunday Times 'Hook creates a tension which is not hindered by the irascibility of his characters ... a plot which races through 1940s Germany, the Cold War and the affluent '80s with ease' Daily Telegraph 'An excellent novel by an enormously underrated author... It is intensely enjoyable and I can't imagine why it wasn't a bestseller' Nicholas Coleridge, The Week
