Collusion: A Jack Lennon Investigation Set in Northern Ireland

Praise for Stuart Neville:

Neville's novel is a coldly lucid assessment of the fragility of the Irish peace . . . a rare example of legitimate noir fiction.--The New YorkTimes Book Review

Stuart Neville belongs to a younger generation of writers for whom the region's darkest years are history--but that history endures, as his first novel, The Ghosts of Belfast, shockingly demonstrates. . . . This noir thriller plays out in a Belfast that, even in summer sunshine, remains oppressively gray. The clannishness of its inhabitants is vividlyevoked. . . . A riot scene, one of the novel's best, captures a new generation's appetite for blood and an old veteran's nostalgia. . . . In scene after gruesome scene, Neville attempts to persuade us that this timearound, with this repentant murderer, the killing is different.--The Washington Post

Neville's tightly wound, emotionally resonant account of an ex-IRA hit man's struggleto conquer his past, displays an acute understanding of the true state of Northern Ireland, still under the thumb of decades of violence and terrorism.--Los Angeles Times

Stuart Neville is Ireland's answer to Henning Mankell.--Ken Bruen

The Ghosts of Belfast is a tale of revenge and reconciliation shrouded in a bloodyoriginal crime thriller. . . . Brilliant.--Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Neville's debut novel is tragic, violent, exciting, plausible, and compelling. . . . TheGhosts of Belfast is dark, powerful, insightful, and hard to put down.--Booklist
