A blinder of a book. Classic Eddie. All the noir you've come to expect and a plot and a half! That guy just gets better and better. Imran Mahmood
This is high octane court drama & I loved every heart-racing, nail-biting page of it. Amy McLellan
Hands down the best book I've read this year. Pacy, clever, steeped in historical accuracy. There's room for wit too. What. A. Ride. Phil Williams
Steve Cavanagh is a world-class talent. Make this your next read. The Devil's Advocate is another blistering case from Steve Cavanagh's outstanding Eddie Flynn series. Tense, timely and brimming with hard boiled justice, The Devil's Advocate is a thoroughly gripping thriller. Highly recommended. Adam Hamdy
Previous books in the Eddie Flynn series have won the Gold Dagger Award and The Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year Award, incredibly, however, The Devils Advocate might well be the best novel in the series so far. As usual Eddie is funny, resourceful and smart but in this one he meets his most villainous and intelligent opponent yet. Steve Cavanagh's take on the American system of criminal justice is both biting satire and exciting thriller a combo that makes Devils Advocate the beach read of the summer of 2021. Adrian McKinty
This is Cavanagh's best yet ... I'm obsessed with Eddie Flynn and this is a masterpiece. Jo Spain
The undisputed king of the courtroom drama. Brian McGilloway
Steve Cavanagh now has the same hotshot literary agent (Shane Salerno) as Don Winslow. Not bad for a boy from Belfast. His latest thriller may flirt with the far-fetched, but if you read the first eight pages you'll be hooked. The Devil's Advocate makes your palms sweat and your blood run cold; the terrific trial scenes out-Grisham John Grisham. Meanwhile, in the 21st century, in the land of the free, the death penalty remains a reality. The Times
Cavanagh is a genius... page-turning stuff Evening Standard
