Snow Job

Margaret Cannon of the Globe & Mail: "One of 11 best mysteries worldwide! Smart, beautifully written, and really, really funny satire featuring Arthur Beauchamp, one of Canadian crime fiction’s truly original characters. The best novel by Deverell ever.""

"Witty, smart mystery ... a fascinating cast of characters with a plot that hooks readers from the very first page." Halifax Chronicle-Herald.

"A laugh-out-loud satire... Snow Job is great, great fun!" Shelagh Rogers, CBC.

"A comic window into Ottawa politics." National Post

"It has vaulted to the top on my list of favourite Beauchamps--much laughing out loud and loving of the satirical look at things political in Canada. A wonderful read." David Poulson, The Cullen and Cobb Mysteries.

"Though the story is dead serious at its heart, Deverell has much material that is as funny as anything he's written. He's in prime comic form in his sendups of Canadian politicians (the Conservative prime minister with the Sir John A. problem is particularly choice). The jokes about Ottawa, its weather and the thin walls of its condos work every time." Jack Batten, Toronto Star
