Paul Cleave
Cameron and Lisa Murdoch are successful crime-writers. They have been on the promotional circuit, joking that no one knows how to get away with crime like they do. After all, they write about it for a living.
So when their 7 year old son Zach goes missing, naturally the police and the public wonder if they have finally decided to prove what they have been saying all this time - are they trying to show how they can commit the perfect crime?
Paul Cleave is currently dividing his time between his home city of Christchurch, New Zealand, where all of his novels are set, and Europe, where none of his novels are set. His novels have so far been translated into 20 languages. He has won the Saint-Maur book festival's crime novel of the year, has been shortlisted for the Ned Kelly award, the Edgar Award, the Barry Award, and has won the Ngaio Marsh award three times for NZ crime fiction.

Critic reviews
Uses words like lethal weapons.
-- New York Times
Tense, thrilling, touching. Paul Cleave is very good indeed.
-- John Connolly, NYT bestselling author
Cleave writes like the fine-tuned punches of a middleweight boxer - with short sharp jabs to the solar plexus that make you gasp. The Kiwi crime writer scores another knock-out punch with his latest novel... The pace and the carnage accelerate toward a climax lasting for several pages and leaving you breathless.
-- Courier Mail, Brisbane

Neuseeland ist mir völlig fremd. Kenne ich nur aus dem Fernsehen. Aber durch Paul Cleave habe ich das Gefühl, Christchurch zu kennen und seine Bürger, obwohl ich natürlich nie einen Fuß dorthin gesetzt habe. Ein schönes, interessantes Gefühl. Und ich freue mich immer über neue Geschichten, die wir von Paul über Christchurch geliefert bekommen.
Ich bin normalerweise kein großer Fan von Entführungs-oder Vermissten-Romanen. Mich interessiert einfach das Thema nicht. Deshalb habe ich mir erst überlegt, ob ich mir das Hörbuch zulegen soll. Jetzt bin ich aber froh darüber, denn das Schicksal der Hauptperson (Vater von Zach) hat mich sofort gefesselt und interessiert. Ich habe das Hörbuch an einem Tag durchgehört. Paul Cleave ist ein sehr guter Schriftsteller. Ich mag seinen Schreibstil und seine besonderen (und lustig-grausamen) Geschichten.
Der Sprecher ist auch ganz gut, aber ich hätte mir gewünscht, dass er ein größeres Repertoire an diversen Stimmen hätte. Die verschiedenen Personen haben sich alle irgendwie gleich angehört. Aber dennoch hat er einen guten Job gemacht.
Ich liebe Paul Cleave. Und das Buch hier auch :-)
