Reviews

Jamie’s books have been well received including reviews in the New York Times.[6] The Guardian said, “In Three Graves Full, Mason places her characters on a tightrope overlooking a feverish mixture of farce, emotion and thrillerish violence. You can never be sure which way they're going to fall.”[7]

The NY Journal of Books said, “Three Graves Full is an extraordinary debut novel that ensnares the reader in its web of suspense and ratchets up the anxiety with each chapter.”[8] Publisher's Marketplace said about The Hidden Things, "Those with an interest in the real-life museum theft may want to check this one out." [9] The Washington Review of Books said, "Mason combines taut action with an intense character study and hauntingly memorable prose." [10]

Author Tana French said, "Hidden Things is a treat: a heist story taken to pieces and expertly put back together at off-kilter angles into a startling, smart, vivid book." [11]
