Our reviews of Jane Adams's work

The takes

What we have said about Jane Adams

  • Jane Adams's 1995 debut. A vanished child, twenty years later, on an East Anglian footpath. Quiet British psychological mystery.

  • The second Mike Croft novel. Jane Adams writing a child-protection investigation with the kind of moral seriousness that the form rarely allows.

  • The third Mike Croft novel. Jane Adams writing a missing-persons investigation that takes its time and earns its melancholy.

  • The fourth Mike Croft. A photographer's posthumous show, an image that should not exist, and Jane Adams in fully realized form.
