Rezensionen

'All of Winslow's books are well plotted, gritty and often disturbingly violent. This is a mob story rival to The Godfather. There can be no higher price.' The Tablet

'This last instalment of Winslow's magnificent trilogy about the life and struggles of Irish mobster Danny Ryan from Rhode Island brings his story to a juddering, unforgettable conclusion ... If this truly is his last hurrah, it is a fitting tribute to his exceptional skill and talent.' Daily Mail

'This slick tale of turf wars, revenge and ghosts from the past is the final book in the superb Ryan and up there with Winslow's brilliant Cartel books' The Sun, PICK OF THE

WEEK

'The plotting and scene-writing are every bit as sharp and painstaking as in his majestic Cartel series. And far from being exhausted, the soon-to-be retired author has energy to spare on subplots, including an interwoven murder trial that could easily be a freestanding novella. Other senior crime writers will be cursing him because they will have to match this standard when they take their final bows.' The Times, Pick of the Month & Best Thriller of 2024

'With 'City in Ruins,' Winslow wraps up a spectacular crime fiction trilogy: a sweeping story that morphs and expands over time.'Washington Post

"City in Ruins is Don Winslow showing the rest of us how it's done. Nobody does it better. The novel builds and builds, the drama, the suspense, our feelings for the central characters - and then everything comes together. Actually, everything explodes. It's a beautiful, artful thing. Winslow has saved the best for last." James Patterson

'With his compelling characters, his vivid prose, and his exploration of universal themes, Winslow has produced a masterpiece of modern crime fiction' UK Times
