What readers say about A Random Kill
Michael Wood - bestselling author of the DCI Matilda Darke series
An engrossing and fast-paced intricately plotted thriller.
Liz Mistry - bestselling author of the DI Gus McGuire series
Regan is such a great character - the perfect blend of grit, tenacity and humour.
Fritzi. This is one of the best, if not the best story that he has written to date. I highly recommend it.
Roxy. A Random Kill has everything you'd want to read in this genre. It's a fast read because you just can't close the book - you have to know what happens next!
Kath. An utterly brilliant story and I really want more of these characters.
Joe. The book is nicely paced and has one of the best retribution killings I have read in a gangland crime book. This is a real page turner, and you will get through it fast but will never want it to end.
Diane. An exciting and gripping plot that deepens in complexity.
Martin. Barrett's masterful pacing builds tension throughout, leading to a climax that leaves readers breathless and eager for more.
Ian. A Random Kill is a busy, twisting, high octane story, a page turner with lots of complex sub plots.
Kindle Customer. Another absolute stonker! The book roars along at a cracking pace. Very tightly plotted.
Sharon. A Random Kill again, like his other books, reek of real life.
Vicki. Andrew Barrett introduces a new character in this series and, boy, what a character.
Annie. Brilliant from start to finish. The tension was palpable from the get-go, and I felt as if I held my breath till the end!
Betsy. This author continues to amaze me. Actually read through the night.
