What the critics are saying:
“Verloren wereld by Dennis Lehane is a relief amidst the heap of thrillers that is being presented by all the publishers to the invariably hungry public. A book that truly deserves the often misused title of literary thriller. Fascinating until the last dot.” —Dagblad de Limburger
“Verloren wereld is a very tough, very well written and very well constructed hard-boiled thriller.” —NRC Handelsblad
“Dennis Lehane writes in the tradition of Chandler and Hammett, only even better.” —NRC Handelsblad
“Verloren wereld has been unusually well translated by Bert Meelker.” —NRC Handelsblad
And last but not least:
“One doesn’t find thrillers better written than this.” —Het Parool
