Praise for Thomas Eidson and his books:

‘Spare, violent and exciting...recreates an unforgiving world in which a moment’s distraction can prove fatal.’ Times Literary Supplement

‘Compelling...a powerful feat of storytelling.’ Irish Times

‘Eidson writes clean and lean, with a hint of sage incense, and can strike a lingering chord. Should make mellow celluloid entertainment.’ Kirkus Reviews

‘The pace and tension are unremitting, but there’s also time for some heart-wrenching emotion.’ Daily Express
