'A very 21st century blockbuster, this has all the classic elements – nail-biting narrative, absorbing relationships, glamorous locations – with an extra shot of intelligence.'

Cosmopolitan Book of the Month, Jan 2004

'Sundowners might sound like some happening clubland stimulant (and may well be, for all I know) but at £9.99, it represents the most fun under a tenner I've come across so far this year.'

Sunday Express

'I enjoyed it hugely, not only because it's a rattling good read but because it's so refreshingly, wonderfully unpretentious. Lesley Lokko is a new voice, as they say, in women's fiction and Sundowners is her first novel. I'm looking forward to her next one already!'

Wendy Holden

'Agreeably glamorous and page-turning.'

The Daily Mail

'Puts the smarts back into the glitzy, unputdownable novel!'

Book Club Associates

'The kind of big, juicy woman's novel that I haven't seen since Sidney Sheldon burst onto the scene thirty years ago.'

Sharon Fantera, Doubleday

'A thrilling, skilful narrative.'

The Literary Guild

'Make way, Jackie Collins, there's an exciting new writer on the block!'

Bella

'A bold, brassy blockbuster that will have you hooked.'

Australian Women's Weekly, Great Book of the Month, January 2008

'The ultimate guilty pleasure!'

Bella

'Endlessly entertaining'

The Big Issue

'A corker of a book!'

Daily Express

'A sexy, sophisticated page-turner!'
