Every Dead Thing Every Dead Thing
UK US
"An ambitious, moral, disturbing tale with a stunning climax."
    —The Times

"Painstaking research, superb characterisation, and an ability to tell a story that's chilling and thought provoking make this a terrific thriller."
    —The Mirror

"Connolly's first novel is a spellbinding book. Informed but uncluttered, it holds the reader fast in a comfortless stranglehold."
    —L.A. Times

"Every Dead Thing is a stunner... Connolly has created a complex tale that is as riveting and chilling as Thomas Harris's Silence of the Lambs and James Patterson's Kiss The Girls. Well-paced and character-driven, Every Dead Thing is a terrific addition to the genre."
    —San Francisco Examiner

"A darkly ingenious debut novel."
    —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Extravagantly gifted... Ambitious, grisly."
    —Kirkus Reviews

"This is an intelligent book packed with puzzles, characters and brilliantly visualised locations that most thriller-writers would have spun out for a series."
    —Amazon.co.uk

"This is Connolly's first novel and a remarkable achievement, up there with Kathy Reichs, Patricia Cornwell and Jeffery Deaver's best works. A literate and absorbing story full of action, in which a multi-dimensional and very human hero fights the worst kind of monsters. I look forward to more from this author, and to the inevitable movie.
    —Book Loons
