Editorial Reviews

"Stevens writes with the confidence of one who knows she's hit on a winning series character who has the world at her beck and call." - Los Angeles Times

"Part Lisbeth Salander, part Jason Bourne, Munroe comes out swinging hard again... A gritty, suspenseful novel." - Library Journal

"A strong and gripping thriller." - Canberra Times

"The Innocent comes through with credibility intact and enjoyment levels high." - Steve Perkin, Daily Telegraph
