What They're Saying
Critics Review
A nail-bitingly tense tale, with writing as sharp and pointed as arrows, where nobody is who they say they are … she is definitely a writer to watch – Claire Coughlan * Sunday Independent *
Siren by Annemarie Neary is a powerful study of guilt and redemption, and how the present can never outrun the past. A gripping thriller, told in deft and subtle prose, this is a masterful crime debut. – Stuart Neville, author of The Twelve
I loved Siren. Annemarie Neary’s beautiful and crisp writing cuts to the bone, a rarity in psychological thrillers. – Claire Fuller, author of Our Endless Numbered Days
Siren is a brave and searing study of characters isolated and estranged from society for very different reasons. It is a beautifully written tale of how we can never escape our past no matter how much others might want us to do so. Gripping, riveting and full of suspense. – Liz Nugent, author of Lying in Wait
I was incredibly impressed with this debut, with its pitch perfect mix of extreme human emotions, combined with the resonance of history. Neary has achieved something really quite special. Highly recommended. * Raven Crime Reads *
Intelligent, thought provoking and beautifully written – Keith Nixon * Crime Fiction Lover *
Fluent and fierce, the book’s integration of the politics of North and South with a gripping revenge plot makes it truly exciting and memorable – Jude Cook * Review 31 *
Siren is a great read – thrilling and frightening with something important to say about the damage done to people on both sides of the political divide during Northern Ireland’s troubled past. I really loved this book and highly recommend it – Sheila Bugler * Crimesquad.com *
