I really enjoyed this book it sucked me into Dougies world with ease. One minute I was on his side the next I couldn’t have been more angry with him. Finished it in 2 days which says it all really.

I absolutely loved this book. I loved the world building and the diversity of the characters. The only thing I wish was that it was slightly longer.

I’d not usually go for a short stories book however I really enjoyed this one and I’m glad I took a punt on buying it. I loved how each story had a tenuous link to each other. Whether it was from cameos in each of the stories or the links from the disgraced detective after each one. My favourite was definitely ‘Dust’. I’ll definitely be reading more from this author.
