Gunner by Alan Parks
Gunner is the first instalment of a new, exciting and suspenseful World War II thriller series.
Great storytelling, and a gripping insight into war-torn Glasgow - I loved it -- Peter James, #1 bestselling author of the Roy Grace series
Great stuff. . a vivid sense of place and time and what a main character! -- Ian Rankin, #1 bestselling author of the Rebus series
A superb thriller with a gripping, constantly surprising plot, vividly realised characters and brutally authentic descriptions of both Glasgow's Blitz and the bleak realities of war on the Home Front. Parks's new series is one to watch -- Andrew Taylor, author of THE SHADOWS OF LONDON
What a fantastic start to a new series and I cannot wait to find out what Gunner does next. It's meticulously researched, but with a beautiful light touch that transports you to the streets of war-torn Glasgow and the lives of everyday folk doing their best to survive. A gritty, immersive, genuine page-turner. And what a compelling hero we have in Gunner: hardbitten, battle-scarred and far from perfect, but striving to do the right thing in a world riddled with corruption and deceit -- Bridget Walsh, author of the Variety Palace Mysteries
A fabulous read. I loved every minute of it. Alan's storytelling pulls the reader in from page one. Wonderful, gutsy writing. Gunner is a tremendous character, as tough as a Glaswegian shipyard hammer -- David Gilman, author of the Master of War series
Alan Parks's Gunner brings World War noir to the mean streets of Glasgow, setting a jaundiced eye onto a slice of history rarely explored in crime fiction. A lean, mean and ruthlessly readable thriller -- Vaseem Khan, author of CITY OF DESTRUCTION
A brilliant milieu, fantastic characters, an exciting story - in other words another typically great Alan Parks novel -- Adrian McKinty, author of Sunday Times bestseller, THE CHAIN
