W.H. Mitchell liked Lea's review of Die Zahlen der Toten (Kate Burkholder, #1): "Ich habe nach 1/3 des Buches gemerkt, dass ich es vor vielen Jahren schonmal gelesen habe, trotzdem blieb es sehr spannend und war vor allem ab der zweiten Hälfte kaum aus der Hand zu legen. Klassischer Thriller, der sich gut weglesen lässt. "
