Aus dem Klappentext

"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
