Stolen Souls is a nightmare story in the most noir place on earth,
told by an exceptional talent. Crime fiction doesn't get much
better than that
*Lee Child*
Stolen Souls offers harrowing, uncompromising suspense
*Val McDermid*
The Twelve was an astonishing debut and Collusion proved it was no
fluke. Now with Stolen Souls, Stuart Neville has raised the bar
even higher. Gripping, compassionate and packed with wonderfully
realised characters, this is a book that will stay with you long
after you finish it. Just three books in and Stuart Neville is
already a crime-writing star
*Mark Billingham*
Stolen Souls is another winner from a a man who's rapidly
establishing himself as a top-notch thriller writer. Great
stuff
*Simon Kernick*
Neville creates a break-neck pace as he switches between the
story's different strands in punchy chapters...good, grisly fun
*Metro*
Unputdownable and seriously good. Fasten your seatbelt and climb
into this rollercoaster of a book
*Eurocrime*
Neville is a master at constructing monsters and this latest is no
exception... The best measure of a genre novel is its readability
and this one sticks to the hands
*Time Out*
Stolen Souls shows an unflinching mastery of such dark and
disturbing material ... A master at work
*Mirror*
This third, beautifully crafted thriller, which brings Inspector
Jack Lennon to the fore, confirms [Stuart Neville's] stature as the
North's most promising crime fiction talent.
*Irish Independent*
The Irish crime-fiction wave rises to new heights with Stuart
Neville's third novel, the tight, telescopic thriller Stolen Souls.
The writing here is mature and assured: There are no extraneous
words or characters... But where Ellroy writes a furious caldron of
nonstop vintage action, one senses a diamond-hard stillness at the
heart of Neville's prose, despite the hurtling plot
*Los Angeles Times*
