'This literary thriller is so self-assured that it is hard to believe it is only Hart's second novel ... it provides a compelling, even mesmerising, mix of themes ... There's plenty of intricately plotted suspense to keep thriller fans happy, but one of the joys of this novel is Hart's rich, atmospheric writing. She brilliantly conjures up the bleak, claustrophobic dust-clogged badlands of the Irish peat bogs where the pagan past seems to lurk just centimetres below the surface.' Western Daily Press on LAKE OF SORROWS 20050108 'Every character is fascinating ... there are so many beautifully realised lives in this novel ... Yet it's an emotionally and intellectually gorgeous descent ... Hart's language sings, and the gothic atmosphere lingers.' Publishers Weekly on LAKE OF SORROWS 20040801 'A treat for lovers of suspense novels.' Woman's Own on LAKE OF SORROWS 20041108 'The music and sadness of rural Ireland form the background to this lively thriller ... The elemental properties of the landscape itself, and the strange history of those who lived, fought, and worshipped there are deeply felt. A satisfying read.' Good Book Guide on LAKE OF SORROWS 20041201 'Hart's mysteries appeal because of the archaeological detail ... a strong tale of Celtic revenge and murder ... an ideal summer read.' Publishing News on LAKE OF SORROWS 20041201 'Intricate crime from a gifted first time author ... altogether different and incredibly transfixing.' Irish World on HAUNTED GROUND 20041201 'Utterly beguiling mix of village mystery, suspense and psychological thriller ... Hart breathes life into local history the way Graham Swift did in Waterland, reinvents the Du Maurier formula for Gothic suspense. In every way this is a debut to remember.' Booklist on HAUNTED GROUND 20041201 'Hart writes with a lovely eloquence.' New York Times on HAUNTED GROUND 20041201 'A fascinating mix of archaeology, forensics and local folklore.' New Woman on HAUNTED GROUND 20041201 'Erin Hart spins a dark tale of gothic suspense fused with modern forensics. This bright new talent lays bare all the buried bones, in a murderous tale of intrigue and betrayal.' Linda Fairstein on HAUNTED GROUND 20041201 'A nice mix of ancient pagan ritual death and modern murder ... the tension is tight, the twist worthy of Goddard, the atmosphere gothic, the writing superb, a great follow-up to Haunted Ground.' The Bookseller on LAKE OF SORROWS 20050225
When workers at a vast peat extraction site in the bleak and tortured landscape of the Irish midlands uncover a long-buried, badly damaged corpse, they call in pathologist Nora Gavin. The body has apparently been strangled, slashed and drowned -- the ritual 'triple death' of Ireland's blood-soaked pagan past. But moments after Nora arrives a much more recent victim is discovered. Like the ancient body, this new corpse seems to have suffered the triple death ...Nora and her lover, archaeologist Cormac Maguire, must team up professionally once more. Soon they are enmeshed in a web of tangled desires and terrible secrets. The danger mounts, fuelled by rumours of ancient gold, illicit liaisons and long-delayed revenge. Though they do not realise it, Nora and Cormac have come far too close to the truth -- placing them in ever-greater danger of becoming a ruthless killer's next victims.
