This third outing in the Corporal Holly Martin series had me riveted right from the beginning. - Mystery Maven (Canada) May 17, 2013 Readers who are interested in dense local detail along with their mystery plots will find plenty to interest in Twilight Is Not Good for Maidens. -- CriminalElement.com, June 15, 2013 Lou Allin is the go-to writer for no-nonsense, well-told stories with tightly knit dialogue, energetic action that pushes the story through a maze of clues to a satisfying conclusion. -- Hamilton Spectator -- Jun 28, 2013 With deftly interwoven references to literary figures ... and insight into the protagonist's family, fans will enjoy this taut thriller. -- Midwest Book Review -- July 20, 2013 This mystery novel is well written and keeps you opening the book to read just a little more while you can. The descriptions of familiar places in the Sooke area is a treat and Allin captures much of the community and the characters in it, keeping it strangely personal. -- The Sooke News Mirror, Aug 31, 2013
