Critic reviews

A rip-roaring thriller . . . thoroughly enjoyable
A wonderfully complex book (Peter James, on Entry Island)
He is a terrific writer doing something different
From the first page I knew I was in safe hands. I knew I could trust this writer (Sophie Hannah)
Wonderfully compelling (Kate Mosse)
Western France - now May's own stamping ground - is as much a character in the book as the Hebrides were in his formidable Isle of Lewis sequence
Peter May is a writer I'd follow to the ends of the earth
One of the best regarded crime series of recent years (Boyd Tonkin, on the Lewis trilogy)
Lyrical, empathetic and moving (Alex Gray)
May's novels are strong on place and the wounds left by old relationships
Will have the reader relishing every tendency of description and characterization (Barry Forshaw)
Dark, exciting and atmospheric
Powerful and authentic
Fast, exciting ... an entertaining read that will also give food for thought
A tense and atmospheric thriller with a heart-stopping ending
Truly the best of May's series so far, this is not to be missed
All stars

I loved the Lewis trilogy and Coffin Road. This drew me on to The Enzo Stories!

The story begins in Paris.

Enzo Macleod is a Forensic expert.

He takes a bet that he can solve the seven most notorious French murders, armed with modern technology & the advances of science. Little does he realise, at the time of the bet, how much computer science will also help him to discover the killers of the first murder he tackles.

He begins his search in the catacombs below the city.

Will he be the next victim?

Highly recommend this book

Brilliant

Disappointing as storyline looked promising but as someone without any knowledge of the French language, it was hard work.

Good for people with working knowledge of French @ Paris!

I have just finished listening to the whole series and felt I should write a review. I listened to every book in order one after the other and enjoyed every minute. I had already become a fan of author and narrator, having listened to the hebrides series as well as some of the stand alone novels. I loved Enzo and his family and will miss him like a friend. The mysteries and murders he solves are intriguing, the action exciting,

Highly recommended
