A story of terrible innocence...with openings of unexpected love and grace worthy of Graham Greene

Burning Bright is a beautifully constructed and thought-provoking novel, with a freshness that makes it outstanding

Helen Dunmore beautifully fulfils the highest function of a storyteller - to make you wonder what will happen next...one goes on addressing the problems of evil which Dunmore raises, long after one has finished her electrifying book

A damn good read. If you've never read Don Winslow, start now

It is impossible in a few words to do [it] justice... It's a huge book, both in size and scope

It was hard to see how Winslow could top his excellent 2006 novel The Power of the Dog, but he's done it ... Masterful

Smoothly oiled, superbly assembled . . . A traditional mob tale on steroids

A gripping thriller . . . Like his book's central figure, Mr. Winslow is good at what he does

Graceful . . . Wonderfully imagined . . . Winslow's story explodes with . . . gritty realism

Smart, staccato . . . A reading experience of sustained intensity, with appealingly sleazy characters and an Elmore Leonard-like snap in the dialogue

Winslow is a sensational writer ... Won't disappoint under any circumstances

Action sequences that put your heart into your mouth ... Vegas nights, floating orgies, shakedowns and shootings galore all feature in this superb novel ... The ending will blow you away
