Media Reviews
It is not necessary to be a fan of motor racing to enjoy Benjamin's latest novel in his series following the investigations of Daniel Leicester although I confess, as a keen follower of FI, the background to Last Testament in Bologna with all its high-octane, fierce rivalry, ever-present sense of danger and carnage is one of the many reasons why this is my favourite of his novels so far. -- Judith Cranswick * Mystery People *
