Tom Callaghan is a name to watch * Promoting Crime Fiction * The denouement is suitably surprising and satisfactory.

A Killing Winter satisfies on so many levels * Milo Rambles * Callaghan is a hell of a writer, with a tremendous sense of pace and an arch ear for juicy dialogue, and the pages fly by. * Crime Thriller Fella * It's brutal but not cynical; you feel it. It's a hugely impressive debut; atmospheric and stirring * Killing Time Crime * His [Tom Callaghan's] descriptions are wonderful - sickeningly so in fact * The Bookbag * Unforgettable * The Sunday Times * A Killing Winter is a brilliant debut, and an early contender for one of my top reads of the year * Raven Crime Reads * [Tom Callaghan's] gloomy atmospheric portrait convinces and he writes with style and panache . . . A lively story and a riveting glimpse of an unknown society * The Times * This is a thrilling, intense debut from a powerfully descriptive writer * The Daily Express * Not since Child 44 have I read something that's left such a memorable impression * Sebastian Fitzek on A Killing Winter * Storytelling of the highest quality . . .

'Even better than Child 44. Akyl Borubaev is a terrific creation' Anthony Horowitz WE UNCOVERED THE LAST OF THE BODIES IN THE RED HOUR BEFORE DUSK, AS THE SUN STAINED THE SNOWCAPS OF THE TIAN SHAN MOUNTAINS THE COLOUR OF DRIED BLOOD. . . Inspector Akyl Borubaev of Bishkek Murder Squad has been exiled to the far corner of Kyrgyzstan, but death still haunts him at every turn. Borubaev soon finds himself caught up in a mysterious and gruesome new case: several children's bodies have been found buried together - all tagged with name bands. In his search for the truth behind the brutal killings, Borubaev hits a wall of silence, with no one to turn to outside his sometime lover, the beautiful undercover agent Saltanat Umarova. When Borubaev himself is framed, accused of involvement in the production of blood-soaked child pornography, it looks as though things couldn't get any worse. With the investigation at a dangerous standstill, Borubaev sets out to save his own integrity, and to deliver his own savage justice on behalf of the many dead who can't speak for themselves . . . 'Just keeps getting better . . . buy the whole series right away' Peter Robinson, No.1 bestselling author of Sleeping in the Ground 'Storytelling of the highest quality . . . Introduces a detective it is impossible not to believe in. Callaghan is a new voice to be welcomed' Daily Mail
