‘Just when you thought there were no new twists to bring to the legal thriller, Cavanagh comes along and knocks your socks off. The high courts meet high concepts.’ LINWOOD BARCLAY
Cavanagh has cornered the market in British iterations of the Grisham/Turow-style legal thriller, with razor-sharp dialogue a particular speciality. When the wife of a serial killer is arraigned for multiple homicides, Eddie Flynn decides to defend her – what he doesn’t need is the killer’s own ruthless intervention, targeting witnesses.’ CRIME TIME


THE MOST HATED WOMAN IN AMERICA

The Sandman killings have been solved. Daniel Miller murdered fourteen people before he vanished. His wife, Carrie, now faces trial as his accomplice. The FBI, the District Attorney, the media and everyone in America believe she knew and helped cover up her husband’s crimes.

THE LAWYER

Eddie Flynn won’t take a case unless his client is innocent. Now, he has to prove to a jury, and the entire world, that Carrie Miller was just another victim of the Sandman. She didn’t know her husband’s dark side and she had no part in the murders. But so far, Eddie and his team are the only ones who believe her.

THE FORMER FBI AGENT

Gabriel Lake used to be a federal agent, before someone tried to kill him. Now, he’s an investigator with a vendetta against the Sandman. He’s the only one who can catch him, because he believes that everything the FBI knows about serial killers is wrong.

THE KILLER

With his wife on trial, the Sandman is forced to come out of hiding to save her from a life sentence. He will kill to protect her and everyone involved in the case is a target.

Even Eddie Flynn…

Reviews

Wow. Steve Cavanagh just gets better and better - this book is genuinely chilling and unnerving at every turn. Couldn't put it down
Sarah Pearse
Brilliantly devious and twisty. Well done, Steve Cavanagh - I inhaled that!
Jo Spain
Steve Cavanagh manages the feat of marrying a genial hero to a white-knuckle plot. Brilliant
Ian Rankin
Witty, razor-sharp proof that the courtroom thriller is in rude health in the UK
Financial Times
There's plenty you won't see coming (and it's all the better for it). This is easily my favourite of Steve's books
Belfast Telegraph
The Accomplice is a cunning, breathless and bloody tale in which nothing is quite what it seems. Steve Cavanagh tells it with such relish you're not sure whether to gasp or guffaw
The Times
Unmissable - 10/10
Peterborough Evening Telegraph
Book a holiday just so you can take The Accomplice with you
Hot Press
The perfect thriller
CrimeTime’s Book of the Month
The maverick lawyer Eddie Flynn faces another thorny case, defending a prolific murderer's wife who stands accused as his accomplice in Cavanagh's new pulsating and scalpel-sharp courtroom thriller
Waterstones Says
If you haven't caught up with Eddie Flynn, what are you waiting for? Another winner, Mr Cavanagh!
CrimeFictionLover
More than once, The Accomplice had me biting metaphorical fingernails
Independent.ie
Steve Cavanagh's Eddie Flynn series goes from strength to strength. The Accomplice is another muscular legal thriller, setting off like a freight train before twisting and turning through a snaky plot. Cavanagh's great skill lies in combining action with courtroom skulduggery; memorably evil villains with shades-of-grey heroes; and the sort of turn-the-page adrenalin that makes him a worthy successor to Grisham. Another triumph
Vaseem Khan
Such a great book
Andrew Child
A twisty plot, compelling courtroom drama and a terrifying serial killer make this next gripping instalment for Eddie Flynn fans unputdownable
