Industry Reviews

`A brilliantly pacy, page-turning thriller and a celebration of the magic of music' Crime Review; `A grim cautionary tale about the dangers of obsession. Hall's deep understanding and fondness for his subject comes crackling out of every page' - Daily Telegraph; `It's full of diverse and delicious pieces of information about recorded sound, and it's a page-turner. I was absolutely gripped. I can see this as a television series' - Sean Rafferty, BBC Radio 3; `A thrilling novel about the beginning of the music industry. James Hall captures a wonderful feeling of time... He writes with a real passion for the subject' - The Bookbag
