Reader reviews for The Wolf Children
''This is writing at its bestA well crafted murder hunt set in haunting landscape of post war Hamburg. Cay Rademacher has again written a book that will stay in my memory for a long time'' *****
''Another atmospheric, well-researched novel from Rademacher. He has a remarkable ability to bring characters to life in the space of a paragraph'' *****
''A bit of a goldilocks bookNot too heavy, not too light, not too long, not too short. Just about right'' *****
