The Line Painter

 "...a masterful balancing act of suspense and relief, a dance between expectation and surprise...It's a bravura performance."
The Globe & Mail

"The Line Painter fires along on its lean language and propulsive suspense, the kind of story you could swallow whole..."

Andrew Pyper, author of Lost Girls and The Guardians

"Where Cameron truly excels is in creating a mood—the text is efficient and not unnecessarily descriptive, yet the setting and characters are crystal-clear."

The Torontoist
