4.0 out of 5 stars Oxford Exit, 24 Dec 2002
Veronica Stallwood's detective writer is a radical change to most stereotypes of clever women.

Kate Ivory, a writer of historical novels, has a boyfriend in the police, and a friend in the Bodlian library. She is recruited this time to help out with a mystery loss of books in the Oxford Libraries Consortium. Many of the characters are found in different books about Kate Ivory, givin gthe feel of a saga, although they can all stand alone.

The plot is fast moving, and takes in the UK and the USA. The Oxford Exit reference becomes clear at least halfway through the book. There are twists and turns within the story, that will keep you wanting to turn the page sooner than you reach the end of it!

A jolly good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clever, creepy, and well written..., 11 May 2009
By G. Henry-Stogdon "Giles" (West Norwood) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm not normally a fan of crime fiction but this book did it for me. I really like the way Stallwood uses a second narrative voice to great effect. I won't say any more on this as I don't want to give the game away... It makes a real change to find a crime novelist who can really write. Highly recommended.
