Intriguing, beautifully written and as noir as Scandi Noir gets
*Irish Independent*
I'm such a huge fan of Stina Jackson so my hopes were sky high for
The Last Snow, and it didn't disappoint. Chilling, thrilling and
beautifully written, Stina has the rare ability to craft superb,
page-turning novels that leave your pulse pounding and your heart
aching. I can't wait for her next offering.

*Jo Spain on 'The Silver Road'*
I love everything about this book. Stina Jackson has mastered the
art of combining suspense with literary depth. It's oh so
beautiful, wistful and well written.
*Lina Bengtsdotter on 'The Silver Road'*
Beautiful writing and a creeping chilling tension combine in this
atmospheric novel set in northern Sweden.
*LoveReading*
The story cuts deftly between characters and scenes in a way that
feels filmic from the start. It's reminiscent of Stephen King in
its recreation of life in a small community populated by damaged
but sympathetic characters and, like much of King's work, would
work equally well as a claustrophobic family drama, or a horror
story, as it does as a thriller.
*Irish Independent*
Stina Jackson describes terrible things - addiction,
violence,physical and psychological abuse - in such a
matter-of-fact way, in such perfect prose, that what ought to be
unbearable becomes spellbinding. Each character, whether good or
bad, is treated with clear-eyed compassion that implies: "There
aren't any monsters. There are only people."
