In the bestselling tradition of Martina Cole, a gritty first novel set in Dublin's mean streets. The first in a series featuring Dublin-based Detective Jo Birmingham.
Niamh O'Connor is one of Ireland's best known crime authors. She is a crime reporter with the Sunday World, Ireland's biggest selling Sunday newspaper, for whom she has written five true crime books which were given away with the newspaper. Her job, in which she interviews both high profile criminals and their victims means she knows the world she is writing about.
"This is a formidable debut... gritty, downbeat and realistic. Highly recommended," Independent, Ireland "A gripping, terrifying, memorable read. Jo Birmingham is my sort of heroine." TESS GERRITSEN "This gritty, compulsive tale of Dublin's mean streets reeks of authenticity. DI Jo Birmingham is a terrific character: gutsy and stylish, with a tough mind and a heart of gold. A real page-turner." Declan Hughes, author "Authentic ... very assured ... stands up in a very competitive market" RTE Radio, Arena "Niamh O'Connor invests her pacy police procedural with gritty detail" Irish Times
