'This hot new author's novel hits the ground digging, right in the middle of the action...

Either well researched or owing to something to insider knowledge, maybe both, this fast ride will keep you guessing all the way to the end' Mark Ramsden-author of Dread: The Art of Serial Killing.

'A gripping gangster novel with a fantastic protagonist. Like a cross between Cassavetes's Gloria and The Long Good Friday' Paul D. Brazill-author of Guns of Brixton.
