Critic reviews

Praise for Stuart MacBride:

‘Fierce, unflinching and shot through with the blackest of humour; this is crime fiction of the highest order’
Mark Billingham

‘Some of the grittiest crime-writing in the field’
Independent

‘Admirers of tough, modern crime novels will be in seventh heaven – or should that be hell?’
Express

‘Ferocious and funny, this is Tartan Noir at its best’
Val McDermid

‘Hard-hitting prose with a bone-dry humour and characters you can genuinely believe in, Stuart MacBride’s novels are a real treat’
Simon Kernick
