"No Mark Upon Her is again deserving of fans' devotion due largely to her intelligent, subtle wit and above all, her meticulous attention to detail, from sculling equipment and competitive jealousy to a 3-year-old's birthday party meltdown to the deep bond between a man and his dog."--Miami Herald

"Ms. Crombie again has turned out a gripping and nicely tailored mystery and added another chapter to her chronicle of Kincaid and Jones."--Washington Times

[A] psychological thrill-ride that explores the allure of power, the pull of jealousy, and the seduction of greed.--The Tuscon Citizen

This is a lovely, satisfying British police procedural with many relationship subplots that lend texture.--Suspense magazine

"Her writing is sophisticated and her suspense taut."--Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
