“Bartlett paints a chilling portrait of a world where the old questions still remain potent - ‘Who guards the guardians?’ Peter James had better watch out, he has a new competitor.”
— Daily Mail
“Bad For Good has everything you want in a crime novel. Bartlett is doing things just that little bit differently. One of the most confidents debuts I’ve ever read.”
— M. W. Craven, author of the Washington Poe series
“The real deal. Authentic and gripping, with a wealth of insider knowledge.”
— Rosamund Lupton, author of Three Hours
