REVIEWS
"Artfulness, artistry and art history are elegantly brought together.... On one level a simple whodunit, the work is also a clever exercise in altering alignments, which makes you aware of how you have failed to see what was staring you in the face" ~ The Independent
"Intricate and intriguing" ~ Daily Mail
"Witty" ~ Arts Guardian
