Biographie:
Eva Dolan is an Essex-based copywriter and intermittently successful poker player. Shortlisted for the Crime Writers' Association Dagger for unpublished authors when she was just a teenager, Long Way Home is her debut novel and the start of a major new crime series.

Long Way Home is a truly exceptional debut crime novel, a perceptive, smart and harrowing look at modern England. Written with great skill, confidence and originality, it feels like a game-changer for twenty-first century British crime fiction -- Doug Johnstone, author of Smokeheads and Hit and Run Eva Dolan's stunning novel is a gritty and unflinching look into a seedy, violent world that most of us would rather pretend never existed. In DI Zigic and DS Fereira, Dolan has created two authentic and intriguing characters -- Howard Linskey, author of The Drop and The Damage Crisp and intelligent writing, strong characters, a great mystery and an engaging style. From the first page, I knew I was in safe hands -- Dan Smith, author of The Child Thief and Red Winter I'm a great fan of debut novels and it's rare to come across one so carefully crafted. Eva writes with faultless plotting and attention to detail. The characters - particularly DI Zigic and DS Ferreira - were so well-drawn I felt at the end like I knew them personally -- Mari Hannah
