Product Description
Bad Catholics was a surprise - and a very pleasant one...I really couldn't put this book down and simply had to see how things were going to end. Love him or hate him, I promise you that Jimmy Costello is a character that people will want to know and read more about. - Chris Simmons, CrimeSquad.com's Fresh Blood section An ultra-hardboiled debut. - The Guardian James Green's debut novel is a cracking thriller...a delight to read... and well put together novel. The Catholic Herald Meet Jimmy Costello. Quiet, respectable, God-fearing family man? Or thuggish street-fighter with a past full of dark secrets? Perhaps the answer is somewhere in between... After Jimmy's wife dies the conflict inside him is too much and the violent assault he commits on a gangster forces him to leave London and his job with the police and disappear for a while. Now he's back, on what you might call a divine mission ...and to settle a few old scores too. Through the eyes of his hard-boiled ex-cop, James Green takes us on a thrilling journey from 1960s Kilburn, through war-torn 1970s Africa to the modern streets of a London that seems to have cleaned up its act ...until you scratch the surface
