'Under the Night is Alan Glynn's masterpiece. A wild, exciting ride through the secret history of America and a page-turning delight that grips tighter with each unfolding page. Glynn is a natural storyteller and an expert in generating tension, unease and dread. The best crime novel I've read this year. If you liked Limitless, you will love this.' Stav Sherez, author of The Intrusions ---- 'Under the Night by Alan Glynn was a thrilling ride through the darker pages of recent American history, and served as a prequel to, and sequel of, his debut The Dark Fields.' Irish Times BOOKS OF THE YEAR ---- 'Remarkable ... [he] has a knack for depicting a shifting reality' LOS ANGELES REVIEW OF BOOKS ---- 'This pacy new thriller from Alan Glynn is every bit as exciting as his 2001 novel, Limitless, it's a really strong follow up . . . The story is engaging from page one and it's not only topical but totally gripping. This is a novel that can be read as a standalone but it cleverly meshes with the original story without any confusing crossover . . . Under the Night is grounded and all the more scary for its connection to the real world. The two strands of the story come together brilliantly in this original and seductive thriller, the ending is spot on.' ― Nudge Books
