Praise for Collusion

Terrifyingly authentic, shiveringly good

Val McDermid

Fast-paced, coolly plotted

Time Out

A second novel that not only lives up to the promise of the first, but actually exceeds it

John Connolly

Brisk, addictive and possessing an expert sense of when to play the "supernatural" card, Collusion is a worthy successor to one of last year's best thrillers

John O'Connell, Guardian

Neville's latest tale of redemption and retribution expertly combines razor sharp writing and expert pacing, and as a result Collusion brims with suspense from start to finish

Ulster Tatler

James Ellroy and Val McDermid were among admirers of Stuart Neville's corpse-filled debut The Twelve, and his follow-up Collusion is another mesmerising Belfast blood bath. The Traveller and O'Kane are memorably grotesque creations and Neville's violent showdowns rival those in Jacobean revenge plays

John Dugdale, Sunday Times

A cracking story, told with wit and panache. Thoroughly enjoyable and thoroughly recommended

Neville's follow-up to his corpse-filled debut The Twelve is another mesmerizing Belfast blood bath...the author's showdowns rival those in Jacobean revenge plays.

John Dugdale, Sunday Times

Collusion then, is a high-tempo noir thriller well underpinned by bleak history
