“一部绝对令人读来既害怕又享受的作品。” -- 艾莉森•弗拉德,《观察家报》,著有Thriller of the Month
“本书无疑是一部极其引人入胜的作品。作者利用了马恩岛民间传说中更为邪恶的一面,并以此为基础营造出了真正的惊悚氛围,简直令人爱不释手。如果伊万将持续为我们带来像《暗潮》这样的作品,读者们一定不会有任何需要抱怨的内容。” – 巴里•弗肖,《每日电讯报》
“这部小说有阿加莎•克里斯蒂的《无人生还》,但又带着一丝戴维•尼克尔斯的《一天》中的那份井井有条,比起伊万的早期小说作品,该部小说更加流畅,呈线性,并犹如电影一般。巧妙地融合了惊悚作品和侦探小说的元素,十分吸引人。” ---约翰•达格代尔,《星期日泰晤士报》
“整部小说的构思巧妙,安排得宜。伊万对于小岛的刻画更是十分具有氛围感。” --- 马塞尔•博林斯,《时代》
“伊万的文笔很诗意,而这部小说更是集毛骨悚然,奇思妙想和完美的结构于一体。” --- 《天主教先驱报》
“一部以马恩岛为故事背景的令人毛骨悚然的神秘之作。” --- My Weekly
“《暗潮》最令人沉迷的地方莫过于这部作品实在是写的太妙了,就是如此简单。阅读时,你会忘记周遭的一切。你的思绪绝不会游离,在这部万圣节惊悚作品中,直到全书的最后,直到第440页,你才会真正恍然大悟。”--- ‘犯罪小说爱好者’
“鲜少会有男性作家敢于以女性的口吻展开叙述,更不用说还有几个能像克里斯•伊万在他的《暗潮》中所做的一样。” --- CrimeWarp
“值得打着火把阅读的顶级佳作。” --- 乔•怀斯,《每日体育》
克里斯.伊万的最新惊悚片“黑暗潮流”仅在英国销售了超过25,000份。
“A truly chilling and thoroughly enjoyable read.” – Alison Flood, Observer, Thriller of the Month
“This is a truly compelling piece of work. He utilises the more sinister aspects of Manx folklore, forging from it a truly atmospheric thriller that is impossible to put down. If Ewan … continues to produce novels like Dark Tides, readers will have little cause to complain.” – Barry Forshaw, Daily Express
“Resembling Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, but with an organising principle borrowed from David Nicholls’s One Day, the novel is more streamlined, linear and film-like than Ewan’s earlier work. A clever, gripping blend of thriller and detective-story elements.” – John Dugdale, The Sunday Times
“The novel’s formula is clever and well executed and Ewan’s portrayal of the island duly atmospheric.” – Marcel Berlins, The Times
“Ewan writes lyrically and this is a chilling, intelligent and brilliantly structured novel.” – Catholic Herald
“A bone-chilling mystery set on the Isle of Man.” – My Weekly
“What’s compelling about Dark Tides is simply that it’s very well written. While you’re reading it, you won’t be able to think about anything else. Your mind won’t drift, and you’ll be wrapped up in this Halloween thriller right up to the final full stop on page 440.” – Crime Fiction Lover
“There are few male authors who would dare to write with a woman’s voice and fewer who could do it as well as Chris Ewan has done in Dark Tides.” – CrimeWarp
“A top book to read by torchlight.” – Jon Wise, Daily Sport
Chris Ewan’s latest thriller, DARK TIDES, has sold over 25,000 copies in the UK alone.
