The Broken Shore Bewertungen

Temple is a master, and The Broken Shore is a masterful book. -- John Harvey
The Broken Shore is the best debut novel I've read this year. -- Harlan Coben
The Broken Shore is a great discovery; a gripping tale from a writer who assuredly takes the reader to places never been before. -- Michael Connelly
One of the most admired thrillers in recent memory. -- John Lanchester
Peter Temple is an addiction. Read one book and you want to read them all. Now. -- Val McDermid
Peter Temple is deservedly the leading light of Australian crime fiction. The Broken Shore is a wonderful novel . . . this is crime writing at its very best, and discovering Peter Temple has been the highlight of my year. -- Mark Billingham
A towering achievement that brings alive a ferocious landscape and a motley assortment of clashing characters. Indispensible. * Guardian *
It's a stone classic . . . read page one and I challenge you not to finish it. * Independent on Sunday *
The first of Peter Temple's books to be published in the UK and at last we can see why he is acclaimed as one of Australia's leading crime writers . . . This is a very fine book. * Sunday Telegraph *
It's hard to know where to start praising this book. Plot, style, setting and characters are all startlingly good. * Sydney Morning Herald *
Temple's work is spare, deeply ironic; his wit, like the local beer, as cold as a dental anaesthetic. * Australian *
