Review:
Compulsive but disturbing...it's the first in a new series and we can't wait for the next instalment. * Bella magazine on Next to Die * Neil White has hit on a winning formula with his informed and entertaining blend of the legal and police thrillers. The Death Collector is assured, cleverly layered and builds to a thrilling and atmospheric climax. * Chris Ewan, author of Safe House * Pacey and packed with atmosphere thanks to author Neil White's day job as a practicing criminal lawyer. * Irish Independent * Excellent writing and a voice of authority, Neil White snares you with his neat plots and real but likeable characters. Top notch thrills from a master of his craft. * Paul Finch, bestselling author of STALKERS * Down and dirty authenticity reeks from every page - the smell of the cells, the artificiality of court appearances, the intensity of the investigation - all helping to make this hypnotic, troubling crime writing with a superb villain and a distinctive atmosphere. * Daily Mail on Next to Die *
