Thanks to Rachel’s Random Resources and Head Of Zeus for my invitation and gifted book to take part in the blog tour for Heather Burnside’s Vengeance.
WILL JUSTICE BE SERVED?
Hannah Conway overhears a lot while working behind the bar of a nightclub – friendly gossip, lovers quarrels, bad business deals – but nothing that usually involves anyone she cares about.
Until she hears Jez Reilly, a corrupt businessman who runs the club, talking about the street her grandma lives on. Jez wants to buy the land for a new luxury development, and most of the residents and businesses have already agreed to sell up. But for those who refuse, something sinister is in store.
When violence hits close to home, Hannah swears revenge, working with handsome nightclub regular Russ Coles to bring the mobsters down.
But these men don’t take kindly to people messing with what’s important to them – especially their money…
Vengeance by Heather Burnside is a book I have been waiting to read. This author does gritty gangland so well! I have always been one of her biggest fans and knew this was going to be brilliant!
Set in and around Manchester,and the run-down council estates and areas I am familiar with. I feel so at home as soon as I open one of Heather Burnside’s books. It does help. I was brought up on one of the many ‘rough’ estates in Oldham not far away from this authors settings.
Heather’s characters are all well created. They all seem like you could walk around a corner and bump into Hannah or Russ! I absolutely felt for Hannah, a single parent who works nights at a nightclub. She reminded me of myself at her age. That’s Heathers expertise. She writes what she knows. Hannah’s boss, Jez, he was despicable. I hated him as soon as I read about him.
The fear from Hannah just emanates from the pages as the story unfolds. Her Nan and the predicament she found herself in were terrible. I was on pins at that point! I was reading so fast. I’m surprised the Kindle kept up!
Yet another brilliantly plotted and detailed thriller from Heather Burnside. I can’t wait for her next book! Until then, I will have to read her back catalogue of books!
