Praise for truecrime:
“Funny, fast, witty, brutal. . . . Whenever he’s got a new book out I drop everything, knowing that the next couple of hours are going to be pure gangland bliss.”—David Bowie
Praise for Jake Arnott
“A great read.”—The New York Times Book Review
“An incendiary tension . . . fiercely seductive.”—Bloomsbury Review
“An anti-hero to die for.”—USA Today
“Strikingly original . . . hypnotically entertaining”—The Boston Globe
“Brilliant.”—The Washington Post
“Gripping.”—Seattle Times
“Sentences fired like bullets at the reader’s imagination.”—Los Angeles Times
Gangland London hasn’t been the same since Harry Starks absconded. The old gang isn’t quite what it used to be with the boss gone. Most are dead, imprisoned or serving time on barstools. Harry’s rumored to be laying low on Cyprus, the Law having given up on nabbing him. But someone is looking who doesn’t worry about extradition laws or the rights of the incarcerated. Someone with about as much use for the rules as Harry.
The predecessor to truecrime was Jake Arnott’s The Long Firm, which is being prepared for broadcast as a four-part series by the BBC. Together with He Kills Coppers, they constitute a small tell-all masterpiece revealing of the British underworld, populated by celebrity criminals, members of high society and the peerage, henchman and louche entertainers.
Jake Arnott is the author of the British bestsellers He Kills Coppers and The Long Firm, both available from Soho Press. He lives in London.
