"This is an elegiac noir for the memory of a place, delivered in a prose as bleakly beautiful as the setting."
-The Guardian

"Another masterclass in Tartan Noir. Not a single word is wasted."
-Daily Record

"This is the Great Scottish Novel, got it all and just a wee shade more. Classic."
-Ken Bruen, author of Headstone

"The book is a quick, thrilling read that ticks all the boxes of a truly engaging crime novel."
-Scottish Field

"Tony Black is clearly the major existentialist crime writer working today and The Storm Without is also his most humanistic book."
-You Would Say That, Wouldn't You?

"Highly entertaining, fast paced and tightly, almost sparingly, written."
-Undiscovered Scotland

"An excellent piece of work ... lean ... pacy ... packs one hell of a punch. Everything you’d want from a Tony Black book is here."
-Crime Fiction Lover

'Tony Black is my favourite British crime writer and Gus Dury the genre's most interesting protagonist. Like his previous books, Loss has the power, style and street swagger that makes most of his contemporaries a little bland by comparison'
-Irvine Welsh, author of Trainspotting

'Tony Black has written two of the finest crime novels to come out of the UK in the past twenty years and I'm willing to bet that in twenty years, Paying for It and Gutted will be on the top ten list of any crime list. But now comes Loss ... Phew-oh ... It's like having yer ass kicked and yer heart shrived simultaneously. What a privilege to watch a master writer achieve everything you'd hoped for and then some'
-Ken Bruen, author of London Boulevard

"Tony Black's Edinburgh makes Ian Rankin's version seem sedate, polite and carefree… DI Rob Brennan, in his second outing, makes a strong case to assume the mantle of Edinburgh's leading fictional detective, vacant since the retirement of Rebus … he's immensely well drawn, and Black's dialogue and atmosphere crackle with authenticity."
-The Times

"This up-and-coming crime writer isn't portraying the Edinburgh in the Visit Scotland tourism ads ... a convincing portrayal of Edinburgh low-life and police rivalries."
-The Sun

"Comparisons with Rebus will be obvious. But that would be too easy ... Black has put his defiant, kick-ass stamp on his leading man, creating a character that deftly carries the story through every razor-sharp twist and harrowing turn."
-Daily Record

“An authentic yet unique voice, Tony Black shows why he is leading the pack in British crime fiction today. His deeply disturbing previous books have been labeled tartan noir, but Murder Mile is in a class of its own”
- New York Journal of Books

"In a departure from his brilliant Gus Dury series, Tony Black introduces a new character to the Edinburgh crime scene, DI Rob Brennan. Dury is the new star of Scottish noir, Brennan proves lightning can strike twice."
-The Daily Record

'Black renders his nicotine-stained domain in a hardboiled slang that fizzles with vicious verisimilitude'
-The Guardian

'An accomplished and impressive piece of tartan noir'
-The List

'Black's visceral prose makes this a superior offering in a crowded market'
-Big Issue

'With comparisons to the likes of Irvine Welsh and William McIlvanney echoing in his ears, Tony Black has become a top-class author in his own right. In his fifth novel, Black once again brings Edinburgh to life in a way few can'
