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 Express * His latest plot is a clever mixture of quest and chase, written in prose that unfolds at warp speed, and rarely fails to sing. * Observer * An intriguing blend of fast-paced crime fiction and fantasy. * Independent *
