A terrific neo-noir from an exciting new voice in Australian crime fiction

Adrian McKinty on The Student

I love reading a book and having no idea where it's going! The Spiral by Iain Ryan is <b>gripping, inventive and utterly unpredictable.</b> It builds to a fantastic climax. I suspect this is one that I'll be thinking about for some time.

ALEX PAVESI, award-winning author of EIGHT DETECTIVES

<b>A frenzied, twisted fever dream of a book</b>, <i>The Spiral</i> is one wild ride. Gripping, shocking and relentlessly dark, it's <b>brilliantly inventive</b>
