'The Devil’s Dice is a terrific debut by Roz Watkins; it teems with shivery atmosphere and introduces a cop quietly different from most of the women detectives in British crime fiction today.' - The Times
\n\n\n\n
'A fascinating debut... Watkins brilliantly balances superstition and scepticism in this clever first novel.' - The Sunday Times
\n\n
\n\nThe setting is dramatic, the characters are convincing and the motive for murder, when eventually uncovered, is interesting... A smart, enjoyable debut.' - The Literary Review.
\n\n\n\n
'An impressive debut... A touch of Agatha Christie, a dash of Ann Cleeves’s Vera and a suitably moody setting in the Peaks, where it always seems to be raining, bring a formidable newcomer to British crime writing.' - The Daily Mail.
