Reviews / Votes
Like O'Sullivan playing at his best, the book is tight, pacey and keeps you guessing. * The Big Issue (Framed) * Ronnie's first crime novel draws on his early years playing in seedy Soho snooker clubs, a world of gangsters and bent coppers he writes about with uncomfortable authenticity. * Choice (Framed) * Packed with intrigue, action, brutal villains and a beguiling hero, this is a cracking first novel delivered with all the sidespin and clever swerves one would expect from the king of the trick shots! * Lancashire Evening Post (Framed) *More details
