from the author of the Yardie trilogy (Yardie, Excess and Yush!), books which influenced me greatly in my early writing, is this thriller about a Jamaican ex-gangster turned special operations policeman searching for the killer of his mentor in London. Told between the present with Carly, the policeman, hunting the killer and the past with Carly starting life as a gangster in Kingston and then becoming a policeman.
I have to say that I didn't enjoy this one as much as Headley's other books. it didn't seem to have the same urgency about it and the less said about the authors use of exclamation marks the better!
all in all not a bad thriller but not a great one either
