Reviews for Those We Left Behind
Deeply chilling, but full of tenderness...utterly compelling... The best book yet from a hugely talented writer
Sunday Mirror
Those We Left Behind is a great, brawling ache of a novel. Filled with both prickling suspense and fiercely wrought emotion, it's a tale of the burdens of family and the weight of the past. And at its center, holding it all together, is DCI Serena Flanagan, the bruised and compassionate hero for whom we've all been waiting
Megan Abbott Superb
Marcel Berlins
The Times
In the world of modern crime fiction, Stuart Neville is a supernova. I buy his books the day they're released because I can't wait to see where he takes me next. And I'm never disappointed
Dennis Lehane Death stalks the pages of Those We Left Behind, and its shadow is dark and menacing. Neville is a compassionate and skilled writer, however, and as we reach the last page of the book, a tiny flickering flame of redemption burns in the night

Neville's track record is proven, with testimonials from the likes of Lee Child and Val McDermid.

To find out who sinks or swims, seek out a copy of this gripping tale
