THE
HACKMAN BLUES
Sing
that! A job of pure simplicity. Find a white girl in Brixton. Piece of cake. What I should have done is doubled my medication and lit a candle to St Jude - maybe a lot of candles. Add to the mixture a lethal ex-con, an Irish builder obsessed with Gene Hackman, the biggest funeral Brixton has ever seen, and what you get is the Blues like they've never been sung before.

'If Martin Amis was writing crime novels, this is what he would hope to write.' - Books in Ireland Read an extract from The Hackman Blues About Ken Bruen Also
