Haunting and unsettling, Turncoat is a story of guilt, survival and the terrible price of self-knowledge, told through the voice of a detective with a double life from acclaimed author Anthony J. Quinn.

The sole survivor of a murderous ambush, a Belfast police detective is forced into a desperate search for a mysterious informer that takes him to a holy island on Lough Derg, a place shrouded in strange mists and hazy rain, where nothing is as it first appears to be. A keeper of secrets and a purveyor of lies, the detective finds himself surrounded by enemies disguised as pilgrims and is drawn deeper into the mysteries of the purgatorial island, where he is forced to confront a series of disturbing secrets and ghosts in his own life. Haunting and unsettling, Turncoat is a story of guilt, survival and the terrible price of self-knowledge, told through the voice of a detective with a double life. Descending into paranoia and self-doubt, he uncovers a sinister panorama of cover-ups and conspiracies. The closer he edges to the truth, the deeper he is drawn into the currents of power, violence and guilt engulfing his country ...

'This should make Quinn a star, for it is unquestionably one of the crime novels of the year.'
Daily Mail

'Beautifully written ... a novel that demonstrates how capacious the crime fiction genre can be.'
The Independent

'Superbly original.'
Sunday Express

'Narrator Adam Best's gentle Irish accent invites listeners into a relentlessly dark story of Northern Ireland during the Troubles. The main point of view is that of Catholic detective Desmond Maguire, who serves uncomfortably on a Protestant police force. Best voices Maguire's thoughts on being the sole survivor of an IRA ambush. In his search for the informer who drew him into the disastrous raid, Maguire travels to the strange, mysterious purgatorial island of Lough Derg. This unsettling mystery has listeners continually uncertain about what is real, whom to trust, and what to believe. Best effectively differentiates the characters, including the female voices. Overall, a well-performed and well-written audiobook about a seriously troubled time.'
