Reviews

Terrifyingly authentic, shiveringly good -- Val McDermid Fast-paced, coolly plotted -- Time Out 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 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 *
