Critics Review
‘I was utterly gripped by Let the Dead Speak, a plotting masterpiece, and am in awe of its sheer pace and drive’
Susie Steiner, author of bestseller Missing, Presumed
‘Casey is a true craftswoman, a writer who beguiles one through the most twisted of plots with a confident and seductive hand. Let the Dead Speak is sharp, complex and gripping to the very end’

‘Jane Casey is one of the brightest stars in the modern crime firmament, and Let the Dead Speak may be her best yet. Fiendishly gripping.’
John Connolly, bestselling author of the Charlie Parker series
'A tremendously twisty, emotional read. I love Maeve Kerrigan – what a terrific series Jane Casey has created’
Sarah Hilary, bestselling author of Someone Else’s Skin
‘I loved it. I think Maeve Kerrigan is one of the most human, sympathetic characters in crime fiction; it has been fascinating to watch her develop as a person and a police officer over the course of this series. At the same time I think this book works brilliantly as a stand-alone thriller or a good introduction to Maeve and Derwent. Fans of intelligent police procedurals and meaty crime fiction are in for a real treat’
Sinead Crowley, bestselling author of Can Anybody Help Me (shortlisted for Irish Crime Book of the Year)
‘A blood-drenched suburban nightmare, set in a street just like yours. Superb characterisation and psychological insight set this novel apart from the pack. If you haven’t discovered Jane Casey yet, this is the perfect place to start’
Mark Edwards, bestselling author of Follow You Home and The Magpies
‘All the twists and turns of a top-rate police procedural but with the psychological depth of a top-rate psych thriller. And Maeve is such a hugely warm character with just the right mix of vulnerable and feisty. Will definitely be looking out more in the series.’
Tammy Cohen, author of When She Was Bad
