Several Deceptions

A very enjoyable display of deadly wit given with a relaxed literary confidence. Here is a gossipy, smart, critical, intellectual, high spirited and literate voice

Hal Jensen, Times Literary Supplement

Clever and enjoyable... This is an accomplished first book, and even if Stevenson never writes another word, she is already more than promising

Phil Baker, Sunday Times

What continuously sustains these stories is an unfashionable concept of serious fiction as etnertainment, an art in which the process is as enjoyable as the effects it is designed to produce... Relish the neat professionalism of a smart new act

Jonathan Keates, Independent

Stevenson's careful plotting and attention to detail prove she is a new voice worth listening to
