The Devil's Feather Summary
|
“[A] harrowing psychological thriller . . . Walters delivers an intense, engrossingly structured tour de force about survival and ‘the secret of freedom, courage.’” –Publishers Weekly (starred) “Have current events finally caught up with Walters’s unremittingly brutal imagination? The latest of her masterful psychological thrillers examines the effects of terrorism as it ranges from Baghdad to West Dorset . . . Genteel and horrifying as ever.” –Kirkus Reviews (starred) “[The Devil’s Feather] takes a sharp turn from hard-hitting war reporting in the Baghdad section to gothic chiller when the setting switches to England. Barton House is a spooky, Brontë-like construction . . . Walters really knows how to write convincing, ever-escalating psychological suspense.” –Booklist “The Devil’s Feather is another Walters tour de force. The combination of fast-moving thriller and acute exploration of the psychotic mind makes this a knockout.” –The Observer “A thriller that really does thrill–partly because we care about its protagonists, and partly because Minette Walters has an enormous talent for old-fashioned story-telling.” –Spectator “A thoughtful and accomplished thriller.” –Daily Telegraph “Walters has succeeded in uniting the traditional crime narrative with a distressing and effective account of the private cruelties that can flourish amid general mayhem. In doing so, she takes the genre to a deeper level.” –The Independent “This is high octane, on-the-edge stuff, at which Walters excels . . . The Devil’s Feather [is] engrossing reading.” –The Times (London) From the Hardcover edition. |
