Reviews
"Periodically I must close the book and remind myself that Clinch 's fantastically atmospheric setting depicts the real, heartbreaking suffering of the Great Depression, that the action scenes I'm eating up are actually grisly crimes perpetrated by cold-blooded criminals. That Holmn manages to sneak his story past my keen moral-outrage sensors is a testament to a fine writing talent. Harry Kvist is in many ways a monster -- Rocky Balboa he ain't. But with all that he has to go through to clear himself of the one awful crime he doesn't commit, he has at least one squeamish, peace-loving reader with him to the last page, cheering with every punch he lands." - Brett Marie, Bookanista "Holmn has Raymond Chandler's rare ability to evoke a character in a few deft strokes." -- Mail on Sunday EVENT "This is noir writing as its best" -- The Bookbinder's Daughter "If Chandler and Hammett had truly walked on the wild side, it would read like CLINCH.
