Overview

Cal Innes is fresh out of prison and ducking a past muddied with ties to local gang lord Uncle Morris Tiernan. But when Tiernan finds out Innes is working as an unlicensed PI and calls in a favor Innes doesn't owe, Innes is thrust into a cat-and-mouse game with Tiernan's psychotic son, Mo. Ordered to track down a rogue casino dealer who's absconded with a hefty chunk of cash, Innes finds that the case points north to Newcastle. With Tiernan's son on his tail and a Manchester cop determined to put Innes back in jail, Saturday's child has to work hard to keep living.

UK PRAISE FOR SATURDAY'S CHILD Ray Banks steps up into the majors. This is already the best UK novel of the year and I'd love to read what tops it. --Ken Bruen, Shamus Award-winning author of The Guards <br> <br> Banks is part of the post-Rankin generation for whom hardboiled is not just a state of mind but a reality. Tough-guy colloquial prose and a pace fast enough to skin a rabbit, at the service of a tale of down-and-dirty realism: this is fiery stuff. --The Guardian (London)
