(More customer reviews)A fantastic read, although the subject matter of this novel is not my usual genre, I was adding a few books to my kindle for reading material to take on my three week holiday and decided to give it a go after a friend had recommended it. The story is very addictive and kept me wanting to read on no matter how heavy my eyes were getting into the wee hours, the characters draw you in and the storyline is riveting. Although the language is strong and the violence brutal in places it is done in such a way that is necessary to tell the story and does not overindulge by cashing in on over use of such material. The main character is a complicated man and left me feeling conflicted, on the one hand he can be cold blooded and ruthless but on the other, can show warmth and compassion to the young and vulnerable. This feels like a real insight into British cities and the underworld that controls them, cold, callous and dangerous. Brilliant..
