From the author of The Rage: "e;A ripping crime tale, impressive in scope and crackling with energy . . . a fascinating portrait of contemporary Ireland"e; (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).The Midnight Choir teems with moral dilemmas, and Dublin emerges as a city of ambiguity: a newly-scrubbed face hiding a criminal culture of terrible variety. Small-time criminals have become millionaire businessmen, the poor are still struggling to survive, and the police face a world where the old rules no longer apply. "e;Believe me, you want The Midnight Choir with you on holiday,"e; says the Sunday Business Post. "e;This is the kind of book you pass on to someone you like, and say 'read this.'"e;"e;The author does everything well. He conveys beautifully the ritual of cops and their quarry, while evoking the feel of a city where new yuppie influence rubs up against the remnants of a seedy, savage past."e; -New York Magazine"e;The lethal precision of his closing punches leaves quite a lasting mark."e; -Entertainment Weekly"e;It's Kerrigan's firm control of the procedural genre and the breathtaking twist he gives his plot that show him to be a master of the form."e; -Publishers Weekly"e;An absorbing, beautifully written tale."e; -The Times (London)"e;Kerrigan's moody, unsettling tale explores the criminal underside of Dublin and, by extension, the dark, hidden face of twenty-first-century Ireland . . . Gripping crime fiction in which the setting is unequivocally the protagonist."e; -Booklist"e;Good news for readers who can appreciate the moral complexities of this flawed hero."e; -The New York Times"e;An intricately plotted novel that can safely be mentioned in the same breath as those by Rankin."e; -Library Journal (starred review)
