Quotes
"Spectacular. . . . A fast, cleverly ellusive story."
- New York Times Book Review on Butchers Hill
"Smartly plotted and paced. Baltimore itself is the book's most compelling character, its uneasy mix of aspiration and decay perfectly suited to Lippman's ironic voice."
- Publishers Weekly
“Unlike many mystery novels, What the Dead Know manages to maintain its suspense until the end... she’s a graceful writer.... Truth, identity and the quintessentially American impulse toward self-reinvention are all smartly explored.”
- Time Out New York
"Laura Lippman has exploded the boundaries of the mystery genre to become one of the most significant social realists of our time."
- Madison Smartt Bell
This razor-sharp mystery nails Baltimore and the reader to the page... The false leads and twists and turns wind up in a surprising, satisfying finish.
- Cleveland Plain Dealer
"Nail-biting suspense."
- Booklist
"Razor-sharp."
- Entertainment Weekly
"Lippman is a writing powerhouse."
- USA Today
"Laura Lippman's stories aren't just mysteries; they are deeply moving explorations of the human heart. She is quite simply one of the best crime novelists writing today."
- Tess Gerritsen, author of THE MEPHISTO CLUB
"Laura Lippman deserves to be a big star."
- Julie Smith, author of House of Blues
"The best mystery writing around."
- Village Voice Literary Supplement
Mystery fans can anticipate an engrosising series.
- Publishers Weekly
Lippman has not only expanded the frontiers of genre fiction, she has enriched literature as a whole.
- Chicago Sun-Times
"Lippman . . . is an author willing to take risks in both writing an storytelling."
- Publishers Weekly on Every Secret Thing
"Lippman, a Baltimore native, skillfully brings the racial and economic tensions of her middle-class neighborhood to life in this poignant page-turner."
- Daily News
"Succeeds brilliantly... Lippman is in total command of her material, weaving strands about race, family myths and self-deception into a mystery so taut the reader is nearly afraid to keep going-and simultaneously powerless to stop.
- People
"Lippman takes an imaginative leap and exercises a considerable amount of narrative ingenuity. . . . Lippman pulls off something more ambitious than a high-wire act of technical virtuosity. with great thought and compassion, she uses her fractured narrative style to delve into the ways in which every serious crime tears to shreds the lives of its victims."
- New York Times Book Review
"Lippman is a pro at finding fresh ways to tell compelling stories."
- Orlando Sentinel
