'FURY is a winner - great bomb-ticking suspense, a wonderful sense of place, fine writing and flesh-and-bones characters. Must reading.' HARLAN COBEN 'G. M. Ford is one of my favorite contemporary crime writers. Hilarious, provocative, and as cool as a March night in Seattle, he may be the best-kept secret in mystery novels. With the exhilarating FURY, he's at top of his game and that's as good as it gets' DENNIS LEHANE

Format:Paperback
I really enjoyed this book, unlike some books of this genre I did not see the end coming and the story progressed at a good pace. Even when you think it is the end it isn't. The characters are interesting and story jumps from place to place but is still easy to follow. I am off to buy the second book!.

I bought this book and eagerly awaited took this book to bed with me. I found the format rather 'tired', so much the same as other books. I couldn't get into any of the characters at all and actually despised the main character! Not a good start I have to say. Within 100 pages the book with fury was thown onto the pile to be given to the local hospital... perhaps someone else will like it more than I did.

Format:Paperback
I was disappointed with the tired revamping of a ponytailed journalist who lives on his boat and eshews the public eye. He's bitter about other journalists, corporate USA, his ex-wife, any type of law enforcement and the democratic process in general.
I found it a tired reworking of the simple plot of saving the (thoroughly obnoxious) innocent man from the death penalty.
It gave me wry smile about how quickly I disliked most of the characters for their self serving arrogance.

For a start, if you like the Leo Waterman books you'll love this. If that was your main concern then just order it now.

Scratchy and edgy
There is something likeable about the hero of this thriller, Frank Corso. He's not a cop but a reporter and, despite his stereotypical hard-man persona, he is vulnerable... Read more

An interesting opener
To begin with, and this may seem pernickety, how can this be the first in an outstanding new crime series? Read more
