Want to read a great whodunnit? Anthony Horowitz has one for you: MAGPIE MURDERS. It's as good as an Agatha Christie. Better, in some ways. Cleverer.
Stephen King
An <b>ingenious</b> novel-within-a-novel whodunit about the death of a crime writer . . . Part crime novel, part pastiche, this <b>magnificent piece of crime fiction </b>plays with the genre while also taking it seriously
Sunday Times
A <b>cunning </b>re-invention of the thriller formula
- Thriller of the Week, Mail on Sunday
Superbly written, with great suspects, a perfect period feel and a <b>cracking reveal at the end</b>
Spectator
A stylish, multi-layered thriller - playful, ingenious and <b>wonderfully entertaining</b>
Sunday Mirror
Brilliant. Really, <b>really brilliant</b>. I loved it.
Sophie Hannah, author of The Monogram Murders
Putting two books in one with their plots running side by side makes <i>Magpie Murders </i><b>difficult to put down </b>and Horowitz fans will thoroughly enjoy <b>a cracking good read</b>
Daily Express
Although at first glance Horowitz's latest offering appears to be a classic whodunit novel, it will almost certainly prove to be <b>unlike anything you've ever read before</b>, and will have you mulling over its various intrigues in between sittings.
Scotsman
Anthony Horowitz's new novel is at once a brilliant pastiche of the English village mystery and a hugely enjoyable tale of avarice and skulduggery in the world of publishing . . . <b>a compendium of dark delights</b>
Irish Times
We loved this Agatha Christie-esque crime novel. <b>A fiendish mystery</b> within a mystery that will have you hooked from page one
Good Housekeeping
A <b>highly enjoyable </b>twist on the classic whodunnit
Metro
Horowitz is a <b>superb </b>pasticheur.
