“A broad range of cultural strands come together in the melting pot and form a delicious stew of criminal adventure... The observations are sharp, and the characters create small nuclear explosions as they collide with each other.” — Nigel Bird, author of Let It Snow.
“The brilliantly named characters, crackling dialogue and dark humour jump out.” — Keith Nixon, author of the Solomon Gray novels.
“A non-stop, black-comedy, noir thriller that rockets along at a terrific pace.” — Mark West, author ofDon`t Go Back.
A foul-mouthed, violently comic crime caper, full of gaudy characters and dialogue sharp enough to shave with.
When a London gangster gives a couple of aging thugs the simple task of collecting a briefcase from a northern courier, he doesn’t suspect that the courier will end up dead in his lock-up, or that the ageing thugs will then dress up in drag to rob a jeweller's shop and lose the coveted briefcase. A fast-moving, wild, and hilarious search for the missing briefcase quickly ensues, with funny and fatal consequences. Guns Of Brixton - Double Barrel combines all new versions of the novellas Guns of Brixton and Cold London Blues in one violent and bawdy collection.
Genre: Mystery
