Media Reviews
Levien is the new must-read thriller writer * Lee Child *
Tense and tightly plotted * Guardian *
This is American crime thriller writing at it's rocket-fuelled, roller-coaster best * Daily Mail (for Where the Dead Lay) *
Professional-grade actioner * Kirkus Reviews *
Enjoyable, hard-boiled stuff, with what's probably a bad-guy first - a psychotic, foul-mouthed Welshman. * Sun *
