Klappentext zu „Deep Water “
'If I really don't like somebody, I kill him . . . You remember Malcolm McRae, don't you?'Vic and Melinda Van Allen seem to be the perfect couple, but appearances are deceptive. There is no love left in their marriage, only jealousy, and Melinda takes pleasure in flaunting her affairs. When one of her lovers is murdered, Vic hints that he was responsible. As fiction and reality start to converge, it's only a matter of time before Vic really does have blood on his hands.

Pressezitat
The outstanding merit of Deep Water is the dexterity with which it develops the psychopath's portrait from the first faint agreeable outline to the full dark horrific colours of schizophrenia. If you read crime stories at all or perhaps especially if you don't, you should read Deep Water. Sunday Times
