Reviews

Seymour orchestrates the build-up to his denouement as masterfully as Merrick co-ordinates his Spanish sting
*The Sunday Times on In At The Kill*

This is a Jonas Merrick novel with a satisfying protagonist, a cast finely etched and deployed well by a master writer, and a series of milieux that underline the strength of criminals. A thriller of note, it is particularly interesting for capturing the tensions between police and the security services and within the latter
*The Critic on In At The Kill*

You don't read Gerald Seymour, you commit to it totally. His stories have amazing detail, yet you still fly through them. And your effort is well rewarded
*Sun on In At The Kill*

As ever, the great strength of Seymour's writing lies in his depiction of the poor bloody infantry of crime and policing
*The Times on In At The Kill*

Seymour's portrayal of the city's crime dynasty, and its inner rivalries and tensions, is masterful
*Financial Times*

Seymour has produced a tingling and compulsive story
*On Yorkshire Magazine*

Seymour has a knack of getting inside his characters in plots that are dryly compelling rather than sequencing continuous beatings-up and murders on every other page like so many thrillers
*Peter Hain*
