Media Reviews
A nail-bitingly tense tale, with writing as sharp and pointed as arrows, where nobody is who they say they are ... she is definitely a writer to watch -- Claire Coughlan * Sunday Independent *
Siren by Annemarie Neary is a powerful study of guilt and redemption, and how the present can never outrun the past. A gripping thriller, told in deft and subtle prose, this is a masterful crime debut. -- Stuart Neville, author of The Twelve
I loved Siren. Annemarie Neary's beautiful and crisp writing cuts to the bone, a rarity in psychological thrillers. -- Claire Fuller, author of Our Endless Numbered Days
Siren is a brave and searing study of characters isolated and estranged from society for very different reasons. It is a beautifully written tale of how we can never escape our past no matter how much others might want us to do so. Gripping, riveting and full of suspense. -- Liz Nugent, author of Lying in Wait
I was incredibly impressed with this debut, with its pitch perfect mix of extreme human emotions, combined with the resonance of history. Neary has achieved something really quite special. Highly recommended. * Raven Crime Reads *
