MEDIA REVIEWS

The very definition of a page-turner! - IAN RANKIN

Steve Cavanagh's twists hit you between the eyes. You never see them coming - ANTHONY HOROWITZ

An enthralling mix of whodunnit, courtroom, drama and workplace comedy, which other authors might have seen as job done. Yet Cavanagh ... also gives Ruby her own storyline and lays on a fun, Coenesque subplot about rival hitmen competing to bump off Eddie, further enriching an already multilayered legal thriller. - THE SUNDAY TIMES, PICK OF THE MONTH

A masterclass in thriller writing. Absolutely superb - M. W. CRAVEN

Steve Cavanagh writes the best hooks in the business - MICK HERRON

This guy is the real deal. Trust me - LEE CHILD

A fantastic thriller writer - MARK BILLINGHAM

A great author - MARTINA COLE

A thriller that never pauses for breath and sends a shiver down the spine. It is a thrill ride that is impossible to put down. - DAILY MAIL

The real magic is in Steve Cavanagh's hypnotic storytelling power - SUNDAY EXPRESS

Cavanagh is a genius - EVENING STANDARD

A legal thriller at its very best. Cavanagh weaves mischief and mayhem with every intricate twist of this fantastic plot. - THE SUN

An epic legal drama - IRISH INDEPENDENT

Cavanagh is able to inject new life into the familiar tropes of the thriller genre. He also knows that like any movie or song worth its salt, a book needs a good opening to hook the audience in, and Witness 8 has a great one ... The only drawback of Witness 8 is how quickly you'll fly through it and then be left impatiently awaiting Flynn's next outing. - BUSINESS POST

Steve Cavanagh has made a thoroughly appealing character our of Eddie and it is impossible not to root for him, whatever he does. The ingenuity of the lawyer's planning and the skill with which he executes his scemes are among the highlights of this fast-moving, funny, touching and occasionally horrifying tale. Cavanagh writes with a light hand and a quick wit. - LITERARY REVIEW

Another rollercoaster of a ride - BELFAST TELEGRAPH

Gripping stuff - SUNDAY POST

Dark and dazzling - WOMAN'S OWN

A masterfully crafted legal drama ... Cavanagh delivers a gripping tale of intrigue and courtroom tension ... with his trademark twists, complex characters and relentless pacing, this will keep readers on the edge of their seats. - GLAMOUR

A deadly game ensues in this dark, dazzling crime thriller - WOMAN’S WEEKLY

The Eddie Flynn novels go from strength to strength. Steve Cavanagh's ability to keep a thriller plot singing along is second to none. In Witness 8, Eddie and his crew find themselves embroiled in another adrenalin-fuelled, scorpion-by-the-tail legal rollercoaster. The best legal thriller series since Michael Connelly's Mickey Haller novels. - VASEEM KHAN
