The Times A mystery of labyrinthine complexity Sunday Telegraph Review Quote Hurt is only Blacks second outing, its a nimbly written and cleverly plotted tale. Its the details of the Derry landscape as much as the investigation into the murder of a teenage girl that held my interest. Give Black a try: this could be the start of a beautiful friendship. - Daily TelegraphI thought this book was excellent. The characters were realistic and the setting was painted vividly, if frighteningly... Id certainly recommend this book both for McGilloway fans and if you just want a good crime book to read. - thecrimewarpThis a very well-paced story, which ratchets up a gear towards the end. Crime fiction and police procedural fans will enjoy this. Lucy Black is a welcome addition to the ranks of fictional detectives. - randomthingsthroughmyletterbox McGilloway is a major force in crime writing.
