And very good. -Lee ChildThe Resurrection Man SeriesA cop with a sharp eye, keen mind, and a lion's heart. -Reed Farrel ColemanCampbell writes smart, rollercoaster tales with unstoppable forward momentum and thrilling authenticity. The Resurrection Man series is a blast. -Nick PetrieGrim and gritty and packed with action and crackling dialogue. -Kirkus Review, for Jamaica PlainAction packed. Tough-as-nails. The pages fly like the bullets, fistfights and one-liners that make this one of my favourite books of the year. Top stuff! -Matt HiltonCampbell's wry maverick Grant never fails to entertain. -Kirkus Review, for Montecito HeightsSets up immediately and maintains a breakneck pace throughout. Its smart structure and unrelenting suspense will please Lee Child fans. -Library Journal ReviewHarkens back to the gritty action series of the 70s and 80s, with a stylish noir voice. -Kirkus Reviews, for Adobe FlatsCrackerjack entertainment: taut, gritty and full of devilish twists. -Kirkus Reviews, for Snake PassHard-hitting action and Grant's dry wit make this a rollicking good time. -Library Journal ReviewCampbell's Beacon Hill is a great tale of violence and intrigue, stretching across the Atlantic and back again. In it, Jim Grant proves he is the real deal. -Reed Farrel ColemanThe UK Crime NovelsThis is police procedural close-up and personal. A strong debut with enough gritty realism to make your eyes water, and a few savage laughs along the way. -Reginald Hill, for Through the Ruins of MidnightAn excellent story well told. A mixture of The Choirboys meets Harry Bosch. -Michael JecksCampbell's 30 years as a Yorkshire policeman infuse this unusual procedural with grim reality and the harsh humor that helps keep the coppers sane. -Kirkus Review, for Blue Knight White CrossEvery detail feels authentic, and Campbell's dark, muscular prose suggests the best pulp writers of the '50s. -Kirkus Review, for Northern Ex
