Media Reviews
'Head and shoulders above the superficial ganster glamour of much contemporary British crime fiction' Val McDermid 'Confirms Mina's place in the premier division... atmospheric,intense and full of the disturbing flavour of inner-city lowlife' Guardian 'This fast-paced first novel set in Glasgow romps its way to a satisfying conclusion in which the evil doer receives rough justice of a most apt and unpleasant kind...Funny, raw, compassionate, often brutal, Garnet Hill turns a wry humour on the shortcomings of its very human characters' Independent 'A corking page-turner that flows like a dream' The List 'Mina,a feisty new crime-writing voice, carves a taut, humane whodunit into Glasgow's impassive face' Scotland on Sunday
