Reviews

Deeply visceral stuff unputdownable. European Literature Network

Savage but irresistible Metro

Characters, even minor ones, are well-developed and credibly flawed with painful pasts Evening Standard

One of the best thrillers of the year! Kepler treats us readers to a nonstop roller coaster of suspense, taking us deep into the hearts and minds of perfectly realized characters. And, oh, what a villain! Lazarus is the definition of a one-sitting read!
Jeffery Deaver, #1 best-selling author of The Goodbye Man

Keplers characters, particularly Joona Linna, are always drawn sharp and deep, like scalpel cuts. Keplers prose unrolls as smoothly as a loop of razor wire. But its Keplers storytelling that really draws blood. Lazarus is as literate as peak Michael Connelly and as addictive as David Baldacci.
A. J. Finn, #1 best-selling author of The Woman in the Window

From the opening line, Kepler sets an ominous tone, cold and heavy with a taught sense of anticipation that will keep readers flying through the pages despite their fear of what might come next. Absolutely terrifying and beautifully written. I'm a fan for life! Tami Hoag, #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Boy

A thrilling, terrifying, dark and disturbing read. Loved it. Patricia Gibney, no.1 bestselling author of the Lottie Parker series

Praise for Lars Kepler:

The story is incredibly dark and the reader will be caught between wanting to turn the page to read on and being too scared to do so SUN

STALKER is terrifying yet hugely enjoyable to read but be warned, it may take you a while to sleep after you finish it DAILY EXPRESS
