Hello Avians
I have just read Painkillers by Simon Ings, a London/Hong
Kong set thriller.
HB? Mmm, gangsters and the like, lots of heavy drinking as
well. Noir? Yes, I would say so. Any good? Absolutely. I
really enjoyed the 'slow reveal' pacing. Some interesting
examination of pain, pleasure and corruption, and, I believed
in the characters. I would reccomend this to anyone on the
list. Brief to avoid spoilers.
Cheers all, Colin.
