Recenzii

Anyone wanting smart and compelling crime fiction with razor-sharp social comment should read Eva Dolan. In fact, EVERYONE should read her
It couldn't be more timely. Or more imbued with passion
Terrific...A haunting novel about friendship, suspicion and betrayal
A thoroughly contemporary and distinctively intelligent thriller
Superb ... Gripping ... A sad, intelligent book, with a shocking ending
Stupendous. The thriller comes of age
Dolan is expert at the orchestration of tension, right up to the vertiginous climax
[Dolan] excels at presenting knotty, addictive tales that also force the reader to think more widely about the way in which society treats its most vulnerable members . A wonderfully prescient premise . Dolan keeps the tension rising as she expertly juggles two distinct voices and timelines . Dolan is a master of pace . Ultimately, this smart, deftly told story resonates so strongly because of the complex, claustrophobic relationship at its heart: like Molly, we are drawn inexorably to Ella's flame, unable to step away even when it might burn
I absolutely loved it. I don't think there's another crime writer around at the moment who's engaging so passionately with urgent social issues, and creating such thrilling drama out of them
Expect clever plotting, complex characters and the best book yet from an author at the top of her game
A tense, intelligent, politically charged thriller, expertly crafted by a writer at the top of her game
Searing and uncompromising and so inventive in structure I could but marvel
Angry and impassioned yet soulful and heartfelt, This Is How It Ends puts Eva Dolan firmly among the top rank of British crime fiction
Bold and unusual, Eva Dolan's exquisite writing perfectly captures contemporary London in this cleverly plotted novel
Angry, compassionate and mind-blowingly clever, with a truly shocking ending
Fierce, timely, twisty and so well written
A sublime and relevant urban literary thriller ... Eva is a brilliant storyteller and the stories she tells are as compelling as they are important. She's a star
Eva Dolan writes some of the most important crime fiction on the scene today
Eva Dolan's writing is snappy, confident and sharp as a blade, with a storytelling style that bubbles and fizzes
One of crime fiction's brightest rising stars
Superb
Dolan has fashioned switchback twists with characters who are nuanced and transcend stereotype. A triumph
Inventive and compelling . An impeccably structured story that blends the personal and political with searing effect
The women have a kind of surrogate mother-daughter relationship, one with all the intricacies and conflict that such a relationship suggests, and it's that shifting dynamic that keeps the story driving forward, and keeps readers on their toes. This is terrific writing that engages the head and heart equally
