Review:

"Praise for Reggie Nadelson:
'A writer who could easily inherit Cornwell's vacant crown.'" (Daily Express)

"Hot Poppies
'A fast-moving tale, full of crackling dialogue, incorporating all the usual ingredients of corruption, drugs and sex. Nadelson is a skilled plotter and has passed the second novel test with distinction.'" (The Times)

"If Raymond Chandler were still alive and watching CNN, he would probably write thrillers like this.'" (Sunday Express)

"There are a number of storylines in Hot Poppies, Nadelson manages the meshing of all these different strands brilliantly, leading to a beautifully satisfying ending." (Guardian)
