Amazon Editorial Review

IT'S EASY TO KILL A MAN. IT'S HARD TO KILL A MAN WELL.

A twenty-nine-year-old man lives alone in his Glasgow flat. The telephone rings; a casual conversation, but behind this a job offer.

The clues are there if you know to look for them. He is an expert. A loner. Freelance. Another job is another job, but what if this organization wants more?

A meeting at a club. An offer. A target: Lewis Winter, a necessary sacrifice that will be only the first step in an all-out war between crime syndicates the likes of which hasn't been seen for decades.

It's easy to kill a man. It's hard to kill a man well. People who do it well know this. People who do it badly find out the hard way. The hard way has consequences.

This book came to my attention when it was nominated for "The CWA John Creasey New Blood Dagger (Best New Crime Writer)" in the 2014 Crime Thriller Awards....& I can certainly see why it was nominated.

The story is told in short snappy sentences. There's no time wasted with unnecessary descriptive passages or long dialogues & yet this blunt, no-nonsense format creates a really believable picture of gangland life, while also doing a great job of making you feel you know what's going through the characters minds.

This was gripping, gritty & ended in a way which has guaranteed I'll be on the look out for the next instalment.
