Richard's writing oozes class 'n' shocking qualities I've yet to find elsewhere.<br />Regards,<br />Col<br />Ps. I, too, love Lynn's 'textures of language' reference.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17913040012695421077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7445048503136822514.post-22030547466950174872011-03-09T10:07:41.784+00:002011-03-09T10:07:41.784+00:00I completely agree that Richard is a master at the...I completely agree that Richard is a master at the dark short stuff and I’m looking forward to seeing how he tackles a novel length police procedural. The novel is getting so many terrific words about it here and there that it has got to be a must read for me. <br /><br />Thanks for the review, Nigel – sounds like a cracking read.Alan Griffithshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12890190137499272096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7445048503136822514.post-54315995000589371252011-03-09T08:13:33.940+00:002011-03-09T08:13:33.940+00:00I agree with you guys.
