Review:
It's a far out read, man. You'll dig it * Weekend Sport * A distinctive British crime drama, which benefits from a clear moral sense * Daily Mail * Excellent period yarn that tackles bent police, the dark side of hippiedom and utterly nails the myth of the Swinging Sixties * Sun * Insightful . . . a novel about the estrangement of fathers and sons, but Shaw has gone beyond that, creating an elegy for an entire alienated generation * New York Times *
