"Even tough guys are allowed to play their little games, and Ken Bruen exercises that license in "London Boulevard", an unnervingly clever reworking of 'Sunset Boulevard' that's both a homage to the 1950 Billy Wilder film and a blueprint for contemporary noir fiction." ---Marilyn Stasio, "The New York Times"
"This is a strong solo effort from Irish noir master Bruen, whose prose floats like a butterfly and stings like bejesus." --"Library Journal"
"Bruen combines staccato prose and hard-edged dialogue with gritty realism and a terrifying look at London's dark underbelly. This one packs one hell of a powerful punch." --"Booklist "(starred review)
"Noir fans will enjoy this rapid-fire thrill ride." --"Publishers Weekly"
"Bruen is a master of dark crime fiction and "London Boulevard" further seals his affinity for the noir." -"The South Florida Sun-Sentinel"
