Trade ReviewA `Must-have new read for 2018’, chosen by the Sunday Express; An Irish Independent `Top Tips for 2018’ pick; “A compelling combination of political drama and lethal action.

Yes, a new star has arrived with a humdinger that could keep you up all night. I was hooked from the start. The first chapter drips with cold sweat … packs a storytelling punch, rather like early Jack Higgins” – Peterborough Evening Telegraph; “Killer Intent is not only considered but cleverly layered, unpredictable and best of all really great fun to read… My advice: Put it on your “must have” list for January.” - LIZ LOVES BOOKS; “A perfectly plotted blockbuster of a book with killer intent” -- IMRAN MAHMOOD, author of You Don’t Know Me; “This is an absolute knockout debut novel from Tony Kent and with more of Devlin and Dempsey promised, I for one can’t wait” -- Shotsmag
