Praise for Forty Words for Sorrow 'Extraordinary for its psychology and tensions. Giles Blunt manages to inhabit the minds of killer, victim and investigator alike, a feat that very few writers can manage. It moves his work to a different level' Jane Jakeman, Independent 'A taut and enthralling tale that is as dark as the Canadian winter setting is cold. Humane, intelligent and gripping, Forty Words for Sorrow is a haunting journey into the human heart in all its complexities' Val McDermid 'This Canadian novel is as fine a police procedural as any written in the USA and doesn't rely on others for ideas - it comes across as fresh as morning dew ... never less than fascinating throughout' Mark Timlin, Independent on Sunday 'A highly professional tour-de-force: excellently plotted, with fleshed-out characters and a well-portrayed, interesting setting' TJ Binyon, Evening Standard
