“The Cold Cold Ground is a razor sharp thriller set against the backdrop of a country in chaos, told with style, courage and dark-as-night wit. Adrian McKinty channels Dennis Lehane, David Peace and Joseph Wambaugh to create a brilliant novel with its own unique voice” Stuart Neville

“It’s undoubtedly McKinty’s finest … Written with intelligence, insight and wit, McKinty exposes the cancer of corruption at all levels of society at that time.

A brilliant piece of work which does for NI what Peace’s Red Riding Quartet did for Yorkshire” Brian McGilloway
