Review :
This terrific, action-packed thriller has superbly drawn characters and an enthralling setting. Deon Meyer is one of the best crime writers on the planet. - Mail on Sunday Deon Meyer is the undisputed king of South African crime fiction, and THIRTEEN HOURS demonstrates why. - The Times South African thrillers arrive with racial baggage, and it's a mark of Meyer's talent to see just how well the issues are balanced with a smashing story. Imposing a strict time limit and a tight location on his plot, he ramps up the suspense to an unbearable degree. Best of all, his sharply drawn characters really feel part of the new South Africa, where loyalties and beliefs must always be questioned. - Financial Times What makes this novel so outstanding is its setting... and Meyer's superlative talent for suspense... This is a vigorous, exciting novel that combines memorable characters and plot with edge-of-the-seat suspense. - The Sunday Times Far and away South Africa's best crime writer - The Times gripping and suspenseful crime novel set in a violent, post-apartheid South Africa - Culture Magazine (The Sunday Times) A cracking read from one of Africa's finest - Shots ezine One of the sharpest and most perceptive thriller writers around - Peter Millar, The Times, on DEVIL'S PEAK
