MEDIA REVIEWS
'Masterly genre-splicing thrillers... Connolly's grip is inexorable... the violent scenarios he paints are couched in prose that is often poetic'- Financial Times
'His dry sardonic,at times almost lyrical,language laced liberally with wry dark humour... two novels for the price of one,and both excellent reads'- Afterword
'A novel with... depth,excitement... personality... clever,sensitive and downright bold perceptions of the author as the stories... rise and fall among some of the weirdest and most brutal characters'- Yorkshire On Magazine
