Reviews

Praise for Eye Contact: 'A chilling game of cat and mouse that should keep you awake long after bedtime. DI Harland is a welcome addition to the growing ranks of British detectives.' - Peter Robinson Let's welcome Fergus McNeill to the ranks of British Crime fiction innovators; he has found a darker shade of noir. - Quintin Jardine Creepy, compelling and completely convincing. - Erin Kelly, author of The Poison Tree. A gripping first novel - Irish Independent A tense, compelling and truly unputdownable read . . . Eye Contact is a novel that will have the reader losing track of time. It also ends on an atypical note, adding to its originality. - www.itsacrimeuk.wordpress.com A great read and a chillingly clever insight into the mind and motives of a killer. - Brian McGilloway A tense police procedural from a new author with a promising future in crime fiction. - Choice magazine 'A very impressive debut nove.l' **** - Star magazine
