The Three Evangelists is a strange mix of the sinister, the bizarre and the surreal; her characters seldom behave like ordinary people, and her mysteries do not follow the usual rules of crime fiction. Yet these curiously assembled elements coalesce into a gripping, unsettling whole that stays in the mind far longer than most novels of the genre. It tantalises from page one

A Vargas novel is as good as a trip to Paris. The style has the same hyper-real quality as all her writing - the real world, but filtered through a strange prism - but it's the plotting that really hits the spot: ingenious and eccentric

A truly original talent, creating situations and characters like nothing else in contemporary crime fiction... This novel is a delight, written in a wonderfully wry tone of voice, and its plot twists will defy the most alert reader

One of France's most original crime writers... her characters are eccentric but appealing and the mystery is enjoyably hard to solve

Original...plenty to enjoy

Forsyth's tale of intrigue and bravery hooks the listener from the start.

Wedding a superb command of detail to a story of pace and power, Forsyth has written a counterterrorism primer-thriller of chilling relevance

Masterly

... Totally absorbing ... a highly recommended read.

... Brilliantly executed and full of significant popular allusion and Irish attitude.

Bruen's tightly coiled prose strikes like a piss-soaked rattler.

Sharp, punch and unsettling, Priest is a masterpiece.

... An intensely dark maelstrom ... excellent.

Bruen should be valued as one of the most challenging and memorable writers in the genre at the moment.
