Seamy, tough and reeking with authenticity, it's grimly fascinating.
Deirdre O'Brien, Sunday Mirror
Ultra-noir… depicts the criminal underbelly of Manchester with force and style. Good story, superior characterisation, convincingly bleak atmosphere.
Marcel Berlins, The Times
Frenetic page-turning tension and mystery... Sometimes nasty, sometimes funny, sometimes knowing in its comment about the rampant misogyny that pervades the underworld. It's a great read, dark and filled with pace.
Nikesh Shukla, We Love This Book
It shines a light on Manchester’s violent underworld, as a nightclub owner finds himself dragged into ever-more-depraved places amid a backdrop of murders.
Mr Hyde
An extremely well-paced piece of writing.
Bookmunch
This is gritty stuff… Benn’s prose is fat-free, sinewy, not a wasted syllable.
UK Press Syndication
Manchester’s Irvine Welsh… Authentic but grim.
Natasha Harding, Sun
Exhilarating prose, gut-wrenching violence and plenty of soul in dystopian Manchester.
Cath Staincliffe
Benn transcends genre… [Trouble Man] is powerful fare.
