Review :
I expected a heart-stopping, thought-provoking thriller from McGilloway, because he always delivers, but by getting inside the head of a vulnerable single mother he shows what a great writer he is The One You Least Suspect is Brian McGilloway's finest achievement, in a career not short of highlights. An exceptional thriller by an exceptional writer. I devoured it. Suffocatingly claustrophobic . . . The very best crime fiction speaks about the everyday world we wish we could ignore; The One You Least Suspect speaks with the quiet authority of truth A one-sitting read, brimming with tension, The One You Least Suspect kept me at the edge of my seat from the intriguing opening to the nail-biting end. What a book, one of the best I've read this year. Outstanding. One of the finest crime writers . . .

Needless to say I loved it The One You Least Suspect cements [Brian McGilloway's] place as one of the finest - if not *the* finest - crime writer in this place we call home . . .
