Review
"Connolly weaves elements of the supernatural into a disturbing, very dark tale....The disquieting subject, coupled with Connolly's dark, lyrical prose, will leave unshakable images lurking on the edge of the reader's consciousness." Booklist
Review
"Connolly has always had a talent for invoking a frightening sense of place in his stories. Landscapes are as potentially evil as his characters, and in the gothic woods and windblown seascapes of Maine he has found the perfect milieu." Rocky Mountain News
Review
"Connolly's books often contain passages of horrific violence, but The Unquiet is less violent and more subtly disturbing....[H]e does it in lyrical, almost poetic language which grips and chills." The Telegraph (U.K.)
Review
"Skillfully weaving the supernatural into drama-filled suspense, in The Unquiet Connolly again manages to sets the hair at the back of your neck on end from the first page, where it stays to the last." Yorkshire Post (U.K.)
