Saturday's Child: A Deadly Ex-Con Detective Crime Mystery – The First Police Thriller Book Series (Cal Innes) - Softcover

 

 

"A knock-out, written with the kind of energy and passion that far too few writers can muster. Fresh and fierce, Saturday’s Child raises the bar for hardboiled fiction."?Laura Lippman, author of New York Times bestseller What the Dead Know

"Fast, funny, and hard as nails, Saturday s Child proves to America what the UK already knows: There s a heart in the darkness of today s finest crime fiction, and Ray Banks will take you there. Buckle up."?Sean Doolittle, author of the Barry-winning The Cleanup

"Ray Banks s writing is a dark delight, and Saturday s Child is like blunt surgery from a cricket bat. Fast, hard, packed with madcap violence and twisted humor, it s a bone-jarring ride through England s bleak underbelly . . . I can t recommend this one enough."?Patrick Quinlin, author of The Takedown
