Dennis Milne is back! A dark, gritty, utterly page-turning novel set in London's meanest of mean streets; the follow-up to Simon Kernick's hugely acclaimed debut, The Business of Dying.
SIMON KERNICK is in his thirties, and lives with his wife and two young children near London. His previous novels, The Business of Dying, The Murder Exchange and The Crime Trade, are published as Corgi paperbacks. The research for Simon Kernick's books is what makes them so authentic. His list of contacts in the police force is extensive and has been built up over more than a decade. It includes long serving officers in Special Branch, the National Crime Squad (now SOCA), and the Anti-Terrorist Branch, all of whom have plenty of tales to tell.
"Simon Kernick may be a new kid on the block but he certainly knows
how to crank up the suspense and deliver a kick in the gut when
it's needed. A Good Day To Die is a terrific novel. Put this one at
the top of your list; it will keep you up well into the night."
--Peter Robinson
"A Good Day To Die is everything we have come to expect from
Kernick -- one of the best young crime writers to have emerged in
the past five years. It's a fast-paced yet deeply moral thriller
with a thoughtful protagonist who never mistakes himself for a
hero."
--Laura Lippman
Praise for "The Murder Exchange"
"Pathos, pace, twists and a savage sense of place make this a
guilty pleasure."
--"Guardian"
"From the Hardcover edition."
