PRAISE FOR
I, RICHARD

“George is dizzyingly gifted at tickling readers with suspense before she smacks them with resolutions that are nasty but appropriate…. Solid-gold shockers.”

—People

“There is nothing like a change in pace to make you appreciate a favorite author all over again.”

—The Charlotte Observer

“Displays her talent for short fiction… satisfactorily shivery.”

—The Orlando Sentinel

“Shows her skill at delivering distilled shocks to the reader's nervous system … The introductions provided for each
story are marvelous in themselves … What more could a crime collection have?”

—Booklist

“Fascinating… a must for Elizabeth George fans.”

—Deadly Pleasures

“George's sharp understanding of ‘core needs' means surprising yet believable denouements.”

—Pages

“A carefully crafted group, each story constructed like a highly polished puzzlebox… George demonstrates that she is a modern, female version of Saki or O. Henry—clever with her hands at fashioning intricate plots, but quick on her feet with making it seem that everything in the parlor is perfectly normal—as long as you don't open the cellar door.”
