Critics Review
Haunting, scary and addictive … the finest crime series currently in existence. As always, the plot marries an ingenious, if recognisable, detective story with something wicked and otherwordly. - Indepent on Sunday
Few thriller writers can create a sense of menace and evil as deftly as Connolly does. Compelling. - Irish IndependentConnolly has always managed to deftly juggle the essential elements of genre fiction with his own supernatural flavour and WRATH is no exception … Connolly has crafted [Parker] so expertly. - Hot Press IrelandWith Connolly, good and evil are always too close for comfort - Daily MirrorConnolly returns to page-turning form with his depiction of a moral world at the mercy of epic conspiracy and remorseless, primordial evil - The Irish Times[What] is so impressive [is] the fact that he’s able to work poetic language into the thriller format … You may think at times you are reading a literary novel but then Connolly will remind you he’s just as adept at the violent strategies of the thriller. Either way you will be left shaken by the experience. - Daily ExpressThis thriller might just have you grasping for your childhood teddy. - LoadedHis latest plot is a clever mixture of quest and chase … rarely fails to sing - ObserverAbout The Author
