A fab read - no one writes crime like Martina Cole
A great read from the queen of crime
Classic Cole
No Mercy is a gripping Cole classic, awash in graphic violence, brutal betrayal and the darkest of deeds, but also brimming with immaculately drawn characters, psychological insight, and the acute observations of family life that have made this author such a crime-writing sensation.
Martina Cole is back with typical barbed wire dialogue, a knuckleduster-hard plot and a tough new character in Diana Davis who runs her family business with a rod of iron. Relentlessly gritty!
Fast-moving and full of guns, gangsters, drugs and gore, this gritty story delivers a terrific twist.
A fully engrossing read
Crime-Queen Martina Cole dispatches yet another grimy tale, this one gilded with 80s panache
