Reviews

  • A stunning novel. Here at last is the Irish Chandler. Naylor is a villain worthy of Elmore Leonard in his prime

    Ken Bruen

  • The Rage is a gripping thriller written with such authority and authenticity that it almost feels like documentary. If you love crime fiction, you owe it to yourself to read Gene Kerrigan

    Stuart Neville

  • Kerrigan's bruising depiction of Dublin's underbelly is wrought with hard-boiled lyricism

    Metro

  • Pacy...cuts close to the bone

    Irish Independent

  • Written in Kerrigan's trademark, sparse style, it rattles along the way all good crime fiction should
