Media Reviews
'Seemingly ripped from recent headlines, Finder's latest is one of his most fiendishly plotted and eerily relevant thrillers ... A master of what might be called the man in over his head thriller, Finder delivers a tense, uncannily relevant tale about government secrets falling into the wrong hands' Kirkus.
'Finder takes a random mixup that could happen to any of us and spins it into a nail-biting nightmare' Linwood Barclay.
'Fast-moving action, and a clever political background, some of it not entirely unfamiliar these days' The Times.
'An enjoyable cat-and-mouse chase, with dark shadows of Snowden and Wikileaks' The Times, Summer Reads 2017.
'An adrenaline-filled cat-and-mouse story that has some of the most amazing chase scenes I've ever read' K.J. Howe, Metro.
'The plotting is first class, the characterisation is sublime and the way Finder injects pace into a story about nothing more than an absent-minded mistake is a masterclass' Crime Squad.
'Hitchcock would have admired Joseph Finder's The Switch' Guardian.
