Outstanding relentless, multi-layered suspense. * Lee Child *
The blood count is high but the novel deserves attention for its sheer inventiveness and unbridled energy. * The Times *
AA Dhands excellent series about Chief Inspector Harry Virdee delves deep into the dark side of Bradford, exploring a city riven by racial tensions and devoid of hope. * Sunday Express *
A tense slice of neo-noir that has won Dhand comparisons to both BBC drama Luther and HBOs The Wire. * Observer *
