Out later this month, Brian McGilloway's latest Inspector Devlin book, Blood Ties, received a lovely review in the Irish Examiner last week:
"The book is expertly paced and all the characters ring true. It handles all its themes sensitively and McGilloway's style is faultless and unobtrusive ... It is a fine pleasure for a reader to come across such a wonderful protagonist six books into a series and know that the joy of reading the earlier books awaits."
