Review:
"These dark, gritty, crime stories set in the mean streets of modern Britain - in Soho, Sheffield, Nottingham - and peopled by gangsters, cops, drug addicts and prostitutes . . . are compelling" * Independent on Sunday * "Is there a better . . . writer around than Harvey? Probably not" * Kirkus Reviews *
