What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘This has everything a thriller should have - hectic action, characters you care about, and some unexpected twists and turns’ - Nuneaton Evening Telegraph
‘The novel has everything one has come to expect in a Stephen Leather thriller - a fst, page-turning pace, characters you hate to love, a satisfying resolution in which justice is seen to be done (but one that would make the police cringe) and a thought-provoking premise that makes the reader delve into his or her own moral center.’ - Deadly Pleasures – Deadly Pleasures ‘This has everything a thriller should have - hectic action, characters you care about, and some unexpected twists and turns’ - Nuneaton Evening Telegraph – Nuneaton Evening Telegraph 19970801 ‘Stephen Leather should be nestling in your bookshelves alongside Frederick Forsyth and Jack Higgins … Exciting stuff with plenty of heart-palpitating action … Leather is an intelligent thriller writer’ – Daily Mail on THE TUNNEL RATS ‘As high-tech and as world-class as the thriller genre gets’ – Sunday Express on THE BOMBMAKER ‘A gripping story sped along by admirable, uncluttered prose’ – Daily Telegraph on THE CHINAMAN ‘Leather, a former journalist, can dispense high-adrenaline plotting but never at the expense of remembering that his characters are humans rather than Action Dolls’ – Sunday Express ‘A top-notch thriller which whips the reader along at breakneck speed’ – Yorkshire Post on THE LONG SHOT
