But who can he trust?
"A clever, fast-paced thriller with incredible world building [and] a cinematic narrative style waiting to be adapted for the screen." - The Independent
"Equally good at derring-do and dialogue... Mosse displays admirable audacity. [The Coming Darkness is] one of the best thrillers of 2022." - The Sunday Times
"Fast and absorbing, action-packed and loaded with atmosphere... This is ambitious and inventive storytelling." - Crime Fiction Lover
"Absorbing and intricately plotted." - The Telegraph
"A heart-thumping race against time." - Saga Magazine
"This is exactly the sort of big, meaty, ambitious thriller that the market needs. I haven't read a book like this since I Am Pilgrim." - Anthony Horowitz
"Superb - there's an ominous drumbeat throughout, and pace and tension, and a subtle and scarily plausible dystopia - and above all there's main character Alex Lamarque... one of the greats. Greg Mosse writes like John Le Carre's hip grandson." - Lee Child
"'It was easy to lie convincingly when there was no truth to conceal'. One of many sobering sentences in this finely-crafted, complex thriller. An utterly satisfying story set in a forensically detailed dystopic future which is too close for comfort." - Lesley Thompson
