Reviews for Kill Chain
'She is up there with Michael Connelly and Lee Child.'
Stephen King
The feisty Evan Delaney makes a welcome return in KILL CHAIN . . . As ever, the plot is pacy and tight.
Sunday Express
Page-turning terror
Belfast Telegraph
Gardiner's prose is cool
Telegraph
A rattling good read

The action is high octane from the first page . . . Meg Gardiner is a class act at the top of her game. Once you pick it up, it's a very hard book to put down.
My Weekly
Gardiner is brilliant at making the over-the-top seem utterly convincing. Her heroine, Evan Delaney, is a paragon for our times: tough, funny, clever, brave, tireless and compassionate . . . The pace and inventiveness never flag, and the climax . . . is both nailbiting and moving. But the brilliant writing is what puts this thriller way ahead of the competition . . . Reading the fifth Evan Delaney book first is not a problem, but you'll probably want to go back and read the others. Intelligent escapism at its best.
Guardian
I have a bone to pick with Kill Chain, and by extension, with its author, Meg Gardiner: it was over too damn fast! I couldn't stop reading it, and when it was done, I wanted more. The book starts at a dead run from page one and doesn't stop until you collapse across the finish line. All things in moderation, but that doesn't apply to Meg Gardiner. One of my new favorite authors.
