Reviews
A gripping read ... I don't remember being this captivated by a debut novel since Lee Child published Killing Floor ... A stand out read ... 5/5 is a given
Gripping from the very beginning. . . Cleverly constructed, dramatic and tense, it leaves you feeling shocked yet wanting more
Impressive and memorable
Outstanding. . . Dark and intense
Pacey, claustrophobic and utterly thrilling
Tenacity is absolutely brutal in its intensity and is quite easily one of the best debut thrillers of 2015
A brilliant debut. Breathlessly plotted. Deeply disturbing
A searing thriller. . . The claustrophobic drama which unfolds is breathtaking. . . A must read for fans of psychological crime thrillers
A taut, tense thriller with a fantastic female lead. . . J.S. Law is one to watch
An impressive debut. . . Law knows what he's writing about, and it shows. The sexist antagonism of the men coupled with the cramped conditions make for gripping, entertaining reading
Gritty, super-charged with tension and claustrophobically atmospheric, Tenacity is a real page-turner of a read. . . Highly recommended
I recommend watching out for this exciting debut author, a former submariner who knows his subaqueous stuff and has delivered a narrative that will make anyone breathless
I would certainly recommend you dive in
If Law manages to hold his course into nuclear noir, this series could go for as long as the atom-powered Tenacity
If you want a thriller that truly works on every level then Tenacity is for you
In his debut novel, J.S. Law has crafted a thrilling suspense . . . Law ends Tenacity with a perfect segue into a sequel. It can't come too soon
J. S. Law is a powerful new voice, and his heroine Dan Lewis lives up to the title, Tenacity. She is fearless and doesn't quit in the faces of all odds. The murky world of submarines and murder make Tenacity addictively readable, and memories of it linger like dreams
J. S. Law's taut crime novel oozes authenticity. I read this in a day and can't wait for the next in what will undoubtedly be an explosive series
Tense, claustrophobic, and totally absorbing, this book should be on every thriller reader's radar - or should that be sonar? Absolutely superb
The descriptions are vivid, the atmosphere frighteningly authentic
I was gripped from the nail-biting opening chapter right through to the end
