Fallen Angel

Gloriously dark, deliciously twisty * Clare Mackintosh *Stunning. A dark, brilliantly written suspense chiller. Superb. One of the best writers in the business on top form * Steve Cavanagh *Nuanced and intelligent – Laura Wilson * Guardian *Addictive in the best possible way - I couldn’t stop reading but didn’t want it to end. This is a holiday read like no other, a dark novel set in the sunniest of settings, the shadow of this beautifully crafted story will stay with me for a long time * Lisa Ballantyne *An insanely twisty thriller, with characters and plot that convince equally - this is a class act from a reliably brilliant author * Mirror *I raced through Fallen Angel, captivated by the darkness of the characters and the underlying toxicities of the dual timelines. Expertly plotted, it twists inexorably along to a highly satisfying resolution * Harriet Tyce *What happened to Niamh … is the mystery that lies at the heart of a novel that skilfully unpeels the truth like an onion, one thin layer at a time * Sunday Times *Fallen Angel shows Brookmyre’s immense skill as a writer at the top of his game, as well as what can be created in the crime/thriller genre * Scotsman *Chilling and mysterious * Sunday Post *It’s simply compelling * The i *A complicated but satisfying tale * Literary Review *A quality psychological thriller that gets into your head and leaves you on the edge * Woman’s Way *Humming along like a well-regulated machine, Fallen Angel shows how much Brookmyre has learned about planning and constructing a thriller, and how easily predictable plot developments can be blended with scarcely believable twists to gripping effect * Herald *A totally addictive novel, with dark characters, layers of deception and some terrific twists * Real People *
