Critics Review

MacBride is a masterful storyteller with a terrific eye for detail and razor-sharp wit. THIS HOUSE OF BURNING BONES is an absolute must-read. - Karin Slaughter, author of After That Night

Dark and brilliantly written - Linwood Barclay, author of I Will Ruin You

MacBride is a damned fine writer - Peter James, author of Picture You Dead

Crime fiction of the highest order - Mark Billingham, author of The Last Dance

Stuart MacBride is an automatic must-read for me … always fast, hard, authentic – and different - Lee Child, author of Killing Floor

A terrific writer - The Times

Deft plotting and whipcrack dialogue, a must read - Peter Robinson, author of Gallows View

Brilliantly creepy - Jane Casey, author of A Stranger in the Family

Ferocious and funny, this is Tartan Noir at its best - Val McDermid, author of Past Lying

Stuart MacBride is one of the best in the business. Always beautifully written, evocative settings and characters dripping with authenticity and a story you can’t get out of your head. Stuart delivers every single time - Steve Cavanagh, author of Witness 8

Hard-hitting prose with a bone-dry humour and characters you can genuinely believe in, Stuart MacBride’s Logan McRae series of novels are a real treat - Simon Kernick, author of You All Die Tonight

This House Of Burning Bones sees the most welcome return of the Aberdeen-set Logan McRae series and it’s as good as we had any right to expect. It’s witty, it’s gripping and it further cements MacBride’s place amongst the upper echelons of the UK’s crime fiction writers. A masterpiece! - MW Craven, author of Nobody’s Hero
