If Snow Hadn't Fallen

'Bolton knows precisely how to ratchet up the tension and tell a cracking story' - GUARDIAN

They say that snow covers everything that is mean and sordid and ugly in the world...but beneath the carpet of white, the ugliness remains.

11 November 2012, London. Long-smouldering feelings come to a head in a burst of shocking violence. A young Muslim man is brutally murdered by a masked gang.

There is just one witness to the horrific crime: DC Lacey Flint. Or at least that's what she thinks...

Reviews

If you only read one crime novel this year, make it this

—— Tess Gerritsen

Spine-tingling suspense!

—— Lisa Gardner

A darling of the crime fiction world, S J Bolton's thriller is terse, unflinching and one you might think twice about reading before bed

—— Stylist Magazine

Mesmerising

—— The Times

Treading a fine line between horror and thriller ... seriously rich yet relentlessly disturbing

—— Daily Mirror

Bolton has written a gripping thriller that does not disappoint

—— Reviewing the Evidence

Wildly entertaining, Ratlines is a superb mystery but in addition, a spotlight on a slice of Irish history largely ignored. This is a complex mystery told in the exceptional style that Stuart Neville has made his own. Jameson and Nazis, Irish rebel songs and Charles Haughey, it's a bold and brilliant blend

—— Ken Bruen

A superbly written, supremely intelligent thriller

—— Mail on Sunday

Absolute blockbuster – and one you won’t want to put down

—— Crime Review

Sittenfeld's humour and sharp observation deliver a coming-of-age novel you can relate to

—— Daily Express
