The Body Next Door

‘The Midnight Promise delivers. Zane Lovitt is a writer to watch.’ * Shane Maloney * ‘[Lovitt has] an attentive ear for language and a nuanced understanding of how quite ordinary extraordinary people may find themselves up to their necks in trouble. This is original Australian crime fiction of the first order.’ * Age on Black Teeth * 'Superb characterisation and meticulously curated exchanges heighten the tension throughout, while recognisable Melbourne landmarks and Australian colloquialisms imbue the narrative with an unsettling familiarity—culminating in a surprising ending that will turn every expectation on its head.’ * Big Issue on Black Teeth * ‘It’s Aussie noir, but much funnier than your standard noir, and Lovitt is a wonderfully inventive writer.’ * New Zealand Listener on Black Teeth * ‘There are only a few authors who I can still vividly remember the first time I ever discovered them. The moment, the feeling, stuck in my reading memory…You knew you’ve just read a writer who you will follow anywhere. I’m adding Zane Lovitt to that list.’ -- Jon Page * Bite the Book on The Midnight Promise *
