Critic reviews
"Linskey has taken a sharp swerve towards the big time.... He has elevated his writing to a level of complexity and humanity seldom approached by British writers previously. A new name on our criminal horizon." (Maxim Jakubowski)
"This is lacerating fare that makes most current crime fiction look like thin gruel." (Financial Times)
"Brilliant.... This is first class stuff, an unstoppable tale, a real page-turner not to be missed." (Sarah Broadhurst)
"Linskey delivers a flawless feel for time and place, mixed with unrelenting pace." [The Times (Top Five Thrillers of the Year)]
"Immensely satisfying, utterly compelling. Prepare to add another name to your must-read list." (Eva Dolan)
However it was a good story.
Annoying Narrator!

If you could sum up Behind Dead Eyes in three words, what would they be?
Nothing's as it seems!Who was your favorite character and why?
Helen, she's got a lot of b****! A good strong woman/ reporter!What does Kieran Bew bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
As always, with a "good narrator" they bring the characters to life, without you even realizing it. They slide effortlessly back and forth from character to character and you're engrossed in the story, not thinking about how the narrator is doing a lousy on that character!If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I hate this ? I think "Behind Dead Eyes" is a great title. It caught my attention right away!!!!Any additional comments?
Great beginning, three excellent plots intertwined within each other. Excellent characters! Ending a little weak!Behind Dead Eyes

It was hard to distinguish between characters and the pace and flow of scenes (or even sentences) were sometimes strangely disjointed. I typically listen while commuting, so I rely on smooth and nuanced narration to help me keep in track of the plot.
I enjoyed what I was able to follow in the story, and I may try the book again in print form.
Terrible narration

The narration is quite good, except for extremely short pauses between sections.
