Critics Review
-
Simply the best crime writer around today. One of the joys of Mosley's writing is the ease that characterises every aspect of it... The characters live and breathe in a way that is utterly convincing and absorbing
Guardian
-
Easy Rawlins comes back from the dead, inspiring his creator to write his best novel for years
Mail on Sunday on LITTLE GREEN
-
This is classic noir territory, filled with unintentional heroes with the best intentions and dangerous dames... A class act
Time Out
-
There are few writers within the crime genre who recreate time and place with Mosley's effortless exactness, even fewer who can replicate his masterfully sustained sense of danger
