Praise for this book
"A fresh, transporting, emotionally involving suspense debut." - A J Finn
"An intriguing mystery, an exotic setting, and a Christie vibe-what's not to love?" - Shari Lapena
"I loved this book. Eliza Reid is so assured in her plot, her characters that it's hard to believe this is her first novel. Death of a Diplomat is compulsive and propulsive reading. Not only wonderfully evocative of a little known area of Iceland, it is also surprising, with twists even a seasoned crime reader won't see coming. A brilliant debut, that promises more to come." - Louise Penny
