What people say about The Lift:
- An incredibly well penned piece of work. He blows me away with each book.
- A masterclass in how to hook the reader and then rack up the tension level to 100
- From the moment I read the opening lines I knew this was going to be good.
- Very atmospheric and forceful short story.
- CSI Collins is a very believable character and certainly has an enjoyable dry wit. His cynical remarks in the lift are just spot on.
- The tension builds as we become privy to Eddie's thoughts, fears and anxieties; the claustrophobic setting adding to the sense of menace, as the reasons for the other two's presence are revealed.
- Eddie is as world-worn and blackly humorous as ever, a character with such depth.
- The three-hander plays out with the vividness and claustrophobic threat Barrett is so good at creating. You, the reader, are there in that lift.
- It was real, gritty and gripping. I was in that lift.
- Andrew has created a gripping and complete tale which challenges stereotype.
