Reviews
This should make Quinn a star, for it is unquestionably one of the crime novels of the year * Daily Mail *
An edge-of-the-seat thriller... beautifully written... Outstanding' * Irish Independent *
Betrayal, Pathos, Compassion, Brutality... As beautifully written as the wild ferocity of Lough Neagh' -- Ken Bruen
Quinn's pacy prose walks the fine line between a James Lee Burke-like melancholy and the sort of muscularity found in Michael Connelly's works. His characters hum with authenticity too. They're not always sympathetic but they're always intriguing... a tense and unpredictable ride' * The Sunday Herald *
In a story that has as many twists and turns, dead ends, potholes and bumps as an unapproved border road, Quinn keeps masterly control of the of the narrative, which involves four different but interlocking hunts * The Belfast Telegraph *
The truth gradually comes clear in this beautifully written novel. It reveals a frightening fact: the Troubles aren't over yet * Literary Review *
A fast-moving story of crime and conspiracy... Masterly' * Irish Independent *
Atmospheric prose that is deeply evocative of a particular landscape spells out Quinn's deep attachment to the countryside of his childhood... This is indeed a twenty-first century crime story and an ingenious one. A new, important voice within Northern Irish crime writing' * Eurocrime *
Like many writers resident in Ireland, Anthony Quinn is influenced by the great American crime writers - and Border Angels shows that he clearly belongs in their august company * Good Book Guide. *
