About this title

Review:

Everything goes crazy and we the readers can only sit back and enjoy the mayhem. Brilliant! (Independent on Sunday)

A pleasure to read (Time Out)

The job of great fiction is to entertain, elucidate and educate while keeping readers nailed to their chairs; this does all of that brilliantly. (Publishers Weekly)

One of America's top new crime writers. (Observer on Greg Iles)

Alarming, believable, and utterly consuming ... resonates long after the final page is turned. (Dan Brown on DARK MATTER)

Iles's way of telling the story lifts him clear of the pack ... into a different league. (Observer on BLOOD MEMORY)

Edge-of-the-seat thrills all the way. (Irish Independent on BLOOD MEMORY)

What does a book's plot need to entice you? Sex, drugs, murder? How about sleazy politicians, bigotry, gunfights...and more sex?...If you haven't yet discovered Iles, TURNING ANGEL will have you wondering where he's been all your life (USA Today)

Explosive...powerful (Chicago Sun-Times)

Lurid...gripping, but there is more to TURNING ANGEL than sex and scandal. Iles offers an insider's heartfelt picture of a Southern town...and populates it with characters who are all too real (Washington Post)
