[A] stunning, breathless conclusion to the Underworld USA trilogy … There is no equivalent in contemporary fiction * Uncut *
[A] jaw-dropping stand-along work of uncompromising power and authenticity, and the trilogy as a whole is one of the landmarks of American fiction of the last 20 years * The Herald *
The classiest act around. Read it and weep - for its utter darkness and yet its stunning sweep and grace * Daily Mail *
