Free (Kindle/Kobo/iTunes) Born Bad [Manchester Gang War Comedic Noir Crime Thriller]
Born Bad by Manchester-resident British author Marnie Riches (Fantastic Fiction) is her standalone contemporary noir crime thriller novel with satirical elements set in Manchester's underworld, this one apparently a gritty black comedy tale of a family-run criminal gang engaging in a turf war after their leader is stabbed, as you do, free for a limited time courtesy of publisher HarperCollins's Avon imprint.
Both customer and editorial reviews tend to note that this is very violent but also very funny, and is incidentally apparently partially-centred around a feisty heroine (not mentioned in the blurb, but presumably the woman depicted on the cover) in the thick of it all. YMMV. Currently free @ Amazon UK & iTunes UK & Google Play & Kobo (available to UK & Japan (via iTunes) when I spot-checked assorted regional stores, YMMV) Description A powerful, darkly comic novel set in the criminal underworld of Manchester from bestselling author Marnie Riches. The battle is on… When gang leader Paddy O’Brien is stabbed in his brother’s famous nightclub, Manchester’s criminal underworld is shaken to the core. Tensions are running high, and as the body count begins to grow, the O’Brien family must face a tough decision – sell their side of the city to the infamous Boddlington gang or stick it out and risk losing their king. But war comes easy to the bad boys, and they won’t go down without a fight. So begins a fierce battle for the South Side, with the leading Manchester gangsters taking the law into their own hands – but only the strongest will survive… |
