Reviews"One of the best mysteries of the year. . . . It's superb. . . . Treat yourself--the pages move as fast as a pint in Andy's hands." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer "Great stuff from one of the greats, and a true must for fans of British crime." -- Rocky Mountain News "[A] meaty mystery. . . . The Fat Man is back. . . . This is good news indeed. . . . . The Price of Butcher's Meat offers an intellectually satisfying mystery, deep character studies and witty social commentary clothed in elegant, literate prose. Hill's mastery of narrative voice creates vitality out of devices that in lesser hands could be disastrous. . . . [It all] works brilliantly." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "Reginald Hill is one of the masters of crime fiction, and his customary wit, plotting, and sense of style are every bit as much in evidence in The Price of Butcher's Meat as they are in the previous Dalziel and Pascoe novels." -- Peter Robinson, New York Times bestselling author of All the Colors of Darkness "One of England's most innovative and erudite mystery writers. . . . When it comes to challenging the mind, a Hill novel is better than Sudoku." -- Orlando Sentinel "Reginald Hill's novels are really dances to the music of time, his heroes and villains interconnecting, their stories entwining." -- Ian Rankin "Reginald Hill, the most playful of genre authors, fancies himself a latter-day Jane Austen in The Price of Butcher's Meat. . . . Hill pulls off the clever literary jest of projecting Austen's unfinished novel Sandition into modern times. . . . [He] proves himself brilliant at recycling 19th-century characters and conventions...while gleefully adding macabre genre touches." -- New York Times Book Review "Few writers in the genre today have Hill's gifts: formidable intelligence, quick humor, compassion, and a prose style that blends elegance and grace." -- Donna Leon "A literary frolic, Hill has brought the epistolary novel into the 21st century with e-mails and a digital voice recorder. . .. .Final word: Great stuff from one of the greats, and a true must for fans of British crime." -- Rocky Mountain News "Hill provides his usual deeply satisfying whodunit. . . . Fans of the Fat Man are in for a treat." -- Entertainment Weekly "Excellent. . . . Hill's perfect pitch (especially for the short, pithy details of dialogue and character description) carries the story through all sorts of villains." -- Publishers Weekly
