Anne Cadwallader: ‘Crossing Over’
FIRST REVIEW NOW IN (ON AMAZON):
5.0 out of 5 stars A gripping, intelligent thriller that feels frighteningly real.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 March 2026
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
A gripping, intelligent thriller that feels frighteningly real. You are thrown into 1987 Belfast with total force.
Lena Dawson is a compelling heroine, brave, flawed, and believable, and the moral danger surrounding her makes every page tense. Anne Cadwallader’s journalistic insight gives the novel rare authority, while the conspiracy, political pressure, and emotional depth make it impossible to put down. Powerful, atmospheric, and utterly absorbing. I loved it.
