Review
'PLAYING WITH FIRE is a highly amusing read, self-deprecating, surprisingly well-written and it zips along at a rate of knots' * Scotsman magazine * 'Havers could charm the knickers off a nun. Wonderfully aristocratic-looking, a great raconteur... he comes across as the sort of man you would kill to have dinner with' * Daily Mail * 'This is a devil-may-care, extremely endearing book with not a luvvie line in it. "Absolute bollocks. Total fun."' * Sunday Times *
