Media
“A Boston Globe Best Book of 2016.”
“Neville’s books are dark but elegantly written case studies of the roots of violence, and here he writes thoughtfully, about children who come from the streets, go through the foster programs and prison systems, and are either reborn or dragged back into the sorrows that are their inheritance.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“In the world of modern crime fiction, Stuart Neville is a supernova. I buy his books the day they’re released because I can’t wait to see where he takes me next. And I’m never disappointed. ”
—Dennis Lehane, author of World Gone By
“Belfast has been a significant presence in Neville’s mysteries, but this compelling procedural is a more universal tale in which unchecked evil flourishes. Flanagan, a breastcancer survivor undergoing counseling, is a fallible protagonist whose appeal grows with each book; don’t miss her here. ”
—Booklist, Starred Review
“[A] complex and compassionate study of the human condition. ”
—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review on So Say the Fallen
“What’s there to say besides, Stuart Neville is a fantastic author. ”
–Suspense Magazine on So Say the Fallen
“One of crime fiction’s newest and most complex heroines to come around in years. ”
–The Strand Magazine on So Say the Fallen
“Masterfully captures a sense of the deep evil that humans can summon.”
–The Seattle Times on So Say the Fallen
“[Neville’s] crime novels, here and in the future, as a way of examining the important question of what makes our lives (and deaths) not only human, but worth the effort.”
