Synopsis (credit: back cover)
Pinkie, a boy gangster in the pre-war Brighton underworld, is a Catholic dedicated to eveil and damnation. In a dark setting of double-crossing and razor slashes, his ambitions and hatreds are horribly fulfilled ... until Ida determines to convict him of murder. But Pinkie, on the run from her pursuing fury, becomes even more dangerous ...
On the 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die List.

In a word: chilling.
"He was like a child with haemophilia: every contact drew blood."
