A RICHARD AND JUDY BOOK CLUB PICK
DCI Serena Flanagan is forced to confront a disturbing case from her past: the murder conviction of a 12-year-old-boy who has just been released from prison
DCI Serena Flanagan hasn’t heard the boy’s name in years.
Not since the blood on the wall and the body in the bedroom.
Not since she listened as he confessed to brutally murdering his foster father.
But now Ciaran Devine is out of prison and back in her life. And so is his brother, Thomas – the brother that Flanagan always suspected of hiding something.
When Ciaran’s probation officer comes Flanagan with fresh fears about the Devines, the years of lies begin to unravel, setting a deadly chain of events in motion.
‘Deeply chilling, but full of tenderness...utterly compelling... The best book yet from a hugely talented writer’
Sunday Mirror
‘A quietly superb, sensitive plot’
The Times
‘A must read’

"Deeply chilling, but full of tenderness...utterly compelling... The best book yet from a hugely talented writer" (Sunday Mirror)
"Those We Left Behind is a great, brawling ache of a novel. Filled with both prickling suspense and fiercely wrought emotion, it’s a tale of the burdens of family and the weight of the past. And at its center, holding it all together, is DCI Serena Flanagan, the bruised and compassionate hero for whom we’ve all been waiting" (Megan Abbott)
"Superb" (Marcel Berlins The Times)
"In the world of modern crime fiction, Stuart Neville is a supernova. I buy his books the day they’re released because I can’t wait to see where he takes me next. And I’m never disappointed" (Dennis Lehane)
"Death stalks the pages of Those We Left Behind, and its shadow is dark and menacing. Neville is a compassionate and skilled writer, however, and as we reach the last page of the book, a tiny flickering flame of redemption burns in the night" (crimefictionlover.com)
"Just read this book. And whilst it keeps you in fear and suspense – appreciate how beautifully it is written" (eurocrime.co.uk)

"Neville's track record is proven, with testimonials from the likes of Lee Child and Val McDermid. Those We Left Behind speaks of the heart-rending choices facing Flanagan and the Devines, and their tortured journeys as they seek a purpose to their lives, battling to keep their heads above water. To find out who sinks or swims, seek out a copy of this gripping tale" (Herald)
