Review
?Part thriller, part porn, part redneck comedy, Hendricks? novel os gleefully immoral, a style that relishes its own perversity and is seductive in its brutality. This is noir gone comic strip - an anarchic romp among sex and muscle that unashamedly brings the two together? Arena ?In a novel tauntingly playful and consistently raunchy, Hendricks has blazed down a path all her own...Chandler, Hammett and Cain might be shocked at such manoeuvres. But Hendricks is their first true female equivalent? Independent on Sunday ?No one writes better about white trash gone bad than Hendricks...Guaranteed to raise your temperature, whatever the weather? The Guardian
