“The recent winner of the Booker for Wolfhall. I had high hopes of this earlier novel about a medium who has had an abused childhood.
Powerfully delivered images of the gypsy home and nasty men. The ghosts are harder to believe.
If an editor had knocked 100 pages off this a better book would have been created. Too slow and a bit dull for that reason.

“An Easy Rawlings novel.
Its been some time since I last read one of these and its great to catch up with him.
Easy’s daughter is sick and he need cash quick. He makes a choice between doing a bank job with ‘Mouse’ or another job which could be equally dodgy. Good stuff.
