KILLING MUM BY ALLAN GUTHRIE
The novella is as tight as a nun's nasty and is a spin off from Guthrie's cracking novel SAVAGE NIGHT. It's the story of a man who is paid to kill his own mother.
Like SAVAGE NIGHT, KILLING MUM takes a violently absurd and tragically comic situation and gives it a couple of dark and bitter twists.
It's like having BLOOD SIMPLE transported to modern day Scotland and is a rush of a read.
Five BLOODY stars.

Hi! Paul D. Brazill...
Thanks, for sharing the link to author Allan Guthrie...book which fit into the category Of True Brit Grit.
I will most definitely, check it out...the link.
DeeDee ;-D
Absolutely spot on. I'm starting to think Guthrie is genetically incapable of writing anything but balls-on brilliant stuff.
it's powerful and brilliantly written. typical allan. great review.
