What makes Stuart Neville so special is that he never forgets the human heart that beats inside the bleakest darkness
Val McDermid
Succinct and pacy storytelling stretched taut across a morass of unresolved tensions and motives for murder that don’t necessarily fit the prevailing post-peace process narrative. Lennon could well serve as a poster boy for conflict resolution, a deeply flawed man who has in the past been his own worst enemy and is now battered and scarred, physically and emotionally, as he pursues truth and justice by any means necessary
Irish Times
Crisply written and fast-moving, the novel has a brutal honesty that confirms Neville's place in the first division of crime writers
Spectator
This pacey, exciting thriller is Neville's best yet
Sunday Mirror
Deftly plotted, fast paced and the denouement packs a real punch
Laura Wilson, Guardian
Neville is back with a bang… Just as captivating as the previous novels… I loved everything about the book
Ulster Tatler
Neville, who was heaped with praise for his first book, has managed to keep the good stuff coming, and his new novel shows no sign of a dip in performance
Sunday Business Post
Gripping from start to finish. Neville's economical yet nuanced prose style drives the plot forward at breakneck speed while building complex characters with the deftness that defines a thriller writer at the top of his game
Sunday Independent
This is crime fiction right out of the top drawer. The dialogue throughout the book snaps and jitters with electricity, and as the climax unfolds nothing will be able to make you put the book down. The elements of pity, humanity and compassion are never far under the swirling surface action of this novel, and it will certainly be put on my ‘best of 2014' shelf
Crimefictionlover
Crime fiction doesn't get much better
Lee Child
With a sure grasp of the mechanics of suspense, Neville’s real coup is his multifaceted and conflicted protagonists
