Media Reviews
Praise for Disappeared A major piece of work. Eerily tender, a wonderfully wrought classic that is a landmark in the fiction of Northern Ireland. . . . Line up the glittering prizes of mystery. This one is going to take 'em all. -Ken Bruen, author of Rilke on Black

Quinn has developed a plot that immerses the reader into a darkness we have only read about in the papers or seen on the late night news. -The State Journal-Register
Author Bio
Anthony Quinn (b. 1971) is an Irish author and journalist. Born in Northern Ireland's County Tyrone, Quinn majored in English at Queen's University, Belfast. After college, he worked a number of odd jobs-social worker, organic gardener, yoga teacher-before finding work as a journalist. He has written short stories for years, winning critical acclaim and, twice, a place on the short list for the Hennessy Literary Awards for New Irish Writing. His book Disappeared was nominated for the Strand Critics Award for Best Debut Novel, and Kirkus Reviews named it to their list of 2012's Top 10 Best Crime Novels. Quinn also placed as runner-up in a Sunday Times food writing competition. Quinn continues his work as a journalist, reporting on his home county for the Tyrone Times.
