Praise for The Summer of Dead Toys:
"This dark thriller is an amazing debut--acutely observed and meticulously crafted."--John Verdon, bestselling author of Let the Devil Sleep
"Penetrating, atmospheric. . . . Thoroughly compelling." --Kirkus Reviews
"Salgado's rich inner life and Hill's talents at plotting and prose bode well for a successful series." --Publishers Weekly
“Hugely impressive. . . . Hill’s book seems to have arrived fully-formed with confidence and authority, peeling back the skeins of deceit and betrayal in a most satisfying fashion.” —The Independent
“Entertaining.” —The Times
“A welcome corrective to snow-blindness from too much Nordic noir. . . . Excellent characterization, a sympathetic and engaging protagonist, and plenty of plot twists, with a cliffhanger ending that sets things up nicely for the next in the series.” —The Guardian
