Praise for The Sinner
"As I read the novel, I kept going, 'I know where this is going - there's no way this could be interesting.' And then it would just take a completely different direction." --Jessica Biel
"The best psychological suspense novel I have read all year." --Sunday Telegraph
"The Sinner demonstrates why Hammesfahr is one of Europe's bestselling writers of crime thrillers. It's grim, delves deep into the human psyche, and keeps you gripped." --The Times
"Hauntingly insightful and sensitive." --The Guardian
