White Riot (2023)
(United Kingdom Trilogy, book 1)
Joe Thomas
"Joe Thomas takes on the inflammable end of the Seventies, when Rock Against Racism took the National Front head on and Margaret Thatcher turned the Winter of Discontent into her own Springtime . . . Like Daniel Rachel's Walls Come Tumbling Down meets David Peace's GB84 in a dark labyrinth of bent coppers, sleeping policemen, political polarity and the greatest sounds of the dirtiest decade."
Fade to Grey (2019)
(Gethin Grey, book 1)
John Lincoln
"Brilliant - move over Cormoran Strike indeed - this is the real world!"
