Rezension zu „The White Road “
One of the most distinguished practitioners of US crime-writing. The book synthesises literate, poetic writing with scarifying grue. -- Independent Connolly has honed the private eye's instincts into a sensibility of palpable evil that makes a strong core to this intelligent thriller. An assured, sophisticated tale ... exciting but bittersweet. -- The Times What makes Parker intriguing is precisely that, though a crusader against evil, he has a dark side: he is haunted by the past, his capacity for violence and guilt. -- Telegraph Magazine ... his imagination is undeniably fertile ... a powerful piece of American gothic with an arresting double ending.' -- The Sunday Times One of the fastest-paced and most complex thrillers ... A cracking read from an excellent and highly original writer... pacy, blackly humorous and with a nasty edge. -- Sunday Independent, Dublin Dark, menacing, yet at times almost poetic, The White Road enthrals ... literate, yet fast-paced -- Cambridgeshire Journal 'A wonderfully written literary work ... A must read for Parker fans, and fans of well written prose. -- Deadly Pleasures Consummate crime writing and chilling suspense -- Crime File Another masterpiece -- Belfast Telegraph
