PRAISE FOR KEN BRUEN
“Bruen uses a clipped, telegraphic style – reminiscent of James Ellroy’s ‘White Jazz’ … he infuses his story with a brand of humour that is alternately sly, bizarre, ribald and very dark” – Booklist (USA)

“Irish writer Ken Bruen is the finest purveyor of intelligent Brit-noir” – Tina Jackson, The Big Issue (London)
