‘This is Scott Mariani’s sixth book and it has all the same addictive ingredients, suspense, authenticity and action, as the other books in the Ben Hope series.’
—The Clitheroe Advertiser and Times
‘Well researched, superbly plotted, full of mystery, bloodshed, dark humour and a cast of colourful characters, The Lost Relic sees the Scottish author on top form.’
—Pendle Today
‘The helter-skelter pace kept me hooked like a prize catch . . . if Mariani can type at the pace his novels move, then his PC must have breathed a sigh of relief every time he finished work for the day.’
—Crime Squad Reviews
‘Fast-paced, violent and shot through with a delicate thread of romance, The Lost Relic poses the serious danger of being devoured in one session.’
—The Lancashire Evening Post
‘”Page-turner” is a hackneyed phrase in the world of books, but Mariani’s Ben Hope adventures take the thriller genre to its dizziest and most dazzling heights.’
—The Chorley Guardian
‘A first-rate thriller with just the right blend of adventure and historical background to make it stick. Mariani has his finger on the pulse, and this is a brilliant piece of pure escapism grounded in fact. Terrific!’
—Books Monthly Magazine
‘An exciting read with lots of twists and turns, that will keep you guessing until the end.’
—Closer Magazine
‘A high-voltage story from an utterly great writer . . . a must read.’
