Reviews


"The very definition of a page-turner, full of big personalities, rapid twists and unpredictable moments, cast both in vivid colour and deepest shadow. I tore through it."
- Lisa McInerney


“Kala hits its mark: it’s a beautiful and taut work of prose.”
- Electric Literature

“Irish author Walsh makes an assured debut with this gritty heartbreaker of a thriller… Part heartfelt coming-of-age tale, part brutal Irish noir, this is a spectacular read for Donna Tartt and Tana French fans.”
- Kirkus
