Reception

[edit]

Robert Wiersema of the Edmonton Journal wrote that Robinson "manages to simultaneously focus on the most intimate of crimes, a murder-suicide, and to incorporate a vivid and thought-provoking geo-political twist."[1] Barry Forshaw of The Independent opined that Robinson "has a way of undercutting the genre's familiarity" and praised the plotting.[2] Ken Kilpatrick of Waterloo Region Record called it "well written with terrific characters and a plot that keeps on surprising."[3]
