Revue de presse :
'It is the detail and subplots that make Hosp such a gripping writer. He creates real dilemmas for his characters and saves the most touching resolution to the very end... Hosp is growing and developing with each new book.' --Daily Express
`Hosp is a born storyteller, Grisham and Turow have never written as grippingly.' --Daily Telegraph
`Hosp provides a skilful take on the Grisham-style legal procedural, with the inevitable cast of loveable sidekick, and adds a tough, distinctive tone, closer to his fellow Bostonian crime writers Dennis Lehane and Dave Zeltserman.' --Mail on Sunday
`Hosp is often compared to his fellow lawyer-turned-novelist John Grisham, but this is a grittier read than Grisham's and all the better for it. With believable characters and an authentic setting, Hosp has produced a great page turner. --Press Association
`Finn is markedly more individual that the wearying army of Grisham wannabes...
What makes the Grisham mention a little ironic, is he's actually the better writer...
Among Thieves moves that an express train but the real pleasure derives from the character interaction.'
--Daily Express
`With a clever, believable plot, Among Thieves is one of those thrillers that propels the reader through to the last page, leaving them thoroughly exhilarated' --Waterstone's Books Quarterly
`Accomplished legal thriller writer' --The Bookseller

Inspired by the true story of the biggest art theft of the twentieth century, bestselling author David Hosp returns with his latest blockbuster thriller featuring attorney Scott Finn.
AMONG THIEVES
In the early morning hours of March 18, 1990, two men dressed as police officers entered Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, tied up the guards, and escaped with 500 million dollars' worth of paintings. The heist provoked a massive search for both the thieves and the lost masterpieces. But the paintings never surfaced and the mystery remained unsolved. Now, almost twenty years later, the case threatens to break wide open.
When attorney Scott Finn agrees to help an old friend from Southie, Devon Malley, he has no idea of the trouble he is bringing upon himself. Members of Boston's criminal underworld start turning up dead, and the M.O. of the attacks suggests the involvement of someone trained by the IRA. But when Finn learns of Malley's role in the heist, he's quickly drawn into the crossfire, and into the renewed hunt for the missing artwork . . . A hunt that may cost Finn and his colleagues their lives.
