'A gripping debut novel with surprising twists that is part love story, part mystery and part love letter to a city, and also asks profound questions about the very nature of identity'Nick Harris, Mail on Sunday. 'An evocative paean to a city and its people. A fantastically crafted debut'. James Montague, author of 1312: Among the Ultras. 'It's a page-turner with a tremendous character at its heart. Skilful weaving of fact and fiction, and impressive scope and scale'. David Bevan, author of The Unbelievables. 'The Outsiders is so good. Utterly love it. Can't recommend highly enough'. Damon Minchella. 'A novel full of intrigue, where the past is weaved with the present, forms the basis to this superb debut. Liverpool - its history, culture and atmosphere - shines brightly within the pages. This has leapt into my list of favourite reads'. Buzz Magazine. 'It's fabulous. A great read and a great story, by one of our own'. Sean Styles, BBC Radio Merseyside
