Lies Of Silence Avis

"An armchair time bomb" * Mail on Sunday *
"This is a novel to mirror the disintegration of our times, the unstated irony of which is that a politics so provincial can breed a writer and an art so universal" * Observer *
"A gripping read which you will find impossible to put down" * Literary Review *
"Very much the thinking person's thriller - utterly tense and riveting, but also posing an acute moral dilemma for an ordinary person caught up in the troubled politics of Northern Ireland" * Daily Express *
"It insists on being read at a sitting, for it is imperative to know what happens next" * Financial Times *
