Best Left Buried

A gripping tale involving spies, greed, power and corruption ...
                     - Tim Ayliffe
... a taut and well-paced thriller, dreamt up from the shadows of real historical events.
                     - Sydney Morning Herald / The Age
This follow-up to White's first Latham novel, Shadow Lives, is a well-constructed thriller that moves at a good pace and is supported by an interesting plot. Recommended.
                     - Canberra Weekly
... a good political thriller that nicely expands the breadth of Australian action fiction.
                     - Jeff Popple (Murder, Mayhem and Long Dogs)
... strong character building. Highly engaging. Fast-paced. It's going to have you on the edge of your seat.

Shadow Lives
A prescient thriller giving us the hero we need for our troubled times.
                    - James Phelan
Shadow Lives moves at a breakneck speed from the first page to its stunning conclusion. White's characters are astutely drawn and utterly believable. He had me ducking and weaving through a plot thick with international crime and intrigue. I couldn't put it down.
                    - Mark Smith
The most nail-biting, gut-wrenching, thought-provoking rollercoaster thrill ride of a book I've read in years. I inhaled it in one voracious gulp.
                    - Bram Presser
A hugely impressive accomplishment. A deeply researched and thrilling story about some incredibly complex geopolitics, with a great deal of warmth as well. And it's bloody funny!
                    - Ben Hobson   
... well-written and engaging ... sometimes brutal ... most definitely thought-provoking.
                    - NZ Booklovers 
Fans of noir fiction will love this flawed protagonist. I found Shadow Lives to be gripping, tension-filled and highly engaging.

Something for Bebe
I finished reading in awe of the skill White uses in well-illustrated scenes to make you feel as if you stepped into Bosnia. The character development, dialogue, and intense background of the history involved are marvelous.
                             - Readers' Favorite
Something for Bebe was very engaging, and completely draws you in from the first page. Characters are realistic and interesting with their own personality … an unforgettable action-packed story of revenge dating back to (the) Bosnian War.
                             - Quirky Book Reads
White pens a grand story in Something for Bebe. I haven't read work from this author before, and I really enjoyed this. The characters were realistic and very intense. The author's technique of intense characters and great plotlines is a gift. I have quickly become a big fan of Neil White and his imagination. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author.
                             - Amy’s Bookshelf Reviews
"You probably won't remember me. But I remember you ... I remember what you did. I was powerless to stop your primal impulses back then ... Guess what? I'm back and I've switched sides ... And I'm coming for you."
OMG! The above is the first page of Something for Bebe by Neil A. White and only gets more intense with each chapter. This novel has many components and one, not often found in a thriller, and that is compassion. … an important work of literature.

Turn A Blind Eye

Neil A White, weaves a sticky web of corruption and murder in the murky world of finance. The superb pacing keeps you on the edge of your seat.
                                -  Mark Smith, Wilder Country - Australian YA Indie Book of the Year
 Fast-paced and compelling … a real page-turner.
                                -  Dawn Knox, Award-winning author of The Great War
 Mr. White's descriptive prowess and masterful characterizations combine seamlessly with edge-of-your-seat action in this cross-continent crime thriller, which will keep you turning pages well into the night.  
                                -  Jane Alvey Harris, Award-winning author of the My Myth trilogy
A recommended 5 Star read. Do not ‘Turn A Blind Eye’ to this riveting and engaging tale of corrupt bankers and politicians, and ruthless assassins and bank robbing terrorists.
                                -  Richard Abbott-Bailey, Author of Azarias Tor: The History Maker
Turn A Blind Eye delivers a multi-threaded plot constantly returning back to the central theme of money and corruption … a novel well worth reading.
                                -  AustCrimeFiction.org
I can remember as a teenager when I first read Grisham’s THE FIRM. It was the first time I had a concept of what it meant for a book to be a “page turner.” Neil White’s TURN A BLIND EYE had a lot of echoes of THE FIRM for me. I was ripping through pages. True suspense. 
                                - Matt Coleman, Author of A Rocky Divorce, Graffiti Creek & Juggling Kittens   
Closure

​(White) weaves a tale of unspeakable horrors and terrible sadness and grief that never really can fully heal. 
. . . a powerful story told with great compassion. 
                       -  Emily-Jane Hills Orford - Award-winning author
​Skillful characterizations weave together with a plot of heartbreaking emotional depth.  The exponential, generational effect of loss and revenge are exquisitely captured in this gripping novel.
                       -  Jane Alvey Harris - Award-winning author of Riven
"Closure" clearly demonstrates and documents author Neil A White as being an impressively gifted storyteller.
                        - Midwest Book Review
Closure, a must-read on your list!
