Media Reviews
'Wow! No wonder the best writers around, such as Michael Connolly and James Lee Burke, love Brian Freeman's addictive and intelligent thrillers. The Burying Place, with its darkly nightmarish title, is right up there with his best' * Hobart Mercury, Australia *
'Freeman is an excellent writer and as brilliant as Harlan Coben at psychological suspense' * Daily Mail *
'Raised from the merely formulaic by Freeman's emotional literacy, sense of place and an uncanny ability to wrong-foot the reader and produce a wholly unexpected ending, The Burying Place is far more than the sum of its parts' * Guardian *
'A writer who is firmly in control of his craft... Freeman's particular skill is in the establishment of an atmosphere of menace, conjured to perfection here' * Barry Forshaw, The Good Book Guide *
'Addictive and intelligent... The Burying Place, with its darkly nightmarish title, is right up there with [Freeman's] best' * Hobart Mercury, Australia *
'High tension and terrifying twists that put Freeman up there with Harlan Coben in the psychological crime stratosphere' * Daily Mail *
