I really liked GBH, also. My US paperback is titled Grievous
Bodily Harm, though. I guess they thought we Amuricans
wouldn't know what the initials stood for (and they were
probably right, at least of non punk fans).
Jack Carter and the Mafia Pigeon is on the level of Jack
Carter's Law, a fun prequel, but nothing more. I keep meaning
to go back and read those three again because I had the
nagging impression that there is no possible order in which
they all work, with each book containing at least one
character who didn't survive one of the others.
I have also read his Billy Rags, a prison break book that
made me think of Eddie Bunker (or a Brit version).
I have, but have not read Plender, Boldt and his first,
non-crime novel, All the Way Home and All the Night Through.
I don't have Rabbit.
