Reviews

I've been tracking Steve Cavanagh for a few years now and Thirteen is his best, a dead bang beast of a book that expertly combining his authority on the law with an absolutely great thrill ride. Books this ingenious don't come along very often - Michael ConnellyA brilliant, twisty, ingeniously constructed puzzle of a book. Steve Cavanagh pulls off an enviable premise with panache. - Ruth WarePlotting that takes the breath awaySteve is a fantastic thriller writerHighly intelligent, twist-laden and absolutely unputdownableEddie Flynn is fast becoming one of my favourite fictional heroes and Cavanagh one of my favourite thriller writersThe Plea reads like an idiosyncratic cross between Elmore Leonard and John Grisham, but bursts with its own individual flavour - Financial Times
