Everyone else will be.There's a new queen ruling the streets of Manchester....In the aftermath of her husband's death, Sheila O'Brien is in charge of the city, and for once, she's doing things her way.But she hasn't reckoned with the fearsome Nigel Bancroft, a threat from Birmingham who is determined to assert his territory.As terror and conspiracy begin to reign, Sheila is determined to keep control of the empire she has won - even if she has to die trying....Critic Reviews:"Gritty and gripping." (Kimberley Chambers, Sunday Times number one best seller)"Marnie Riches is already a leading light in the field of Mancunian noir. Born Bad vividly covers all aspects of her city, from its rundown backstreets and grime-covered civic buildings to its rich musical legacy...It's impressive." (The Guardian)"Pacy, poignant, funny and violent, it grabs you by the hand and drags you down the mean streets of Manchester with such verve and authenticity that you can almost smell the rain and blood as you turn the pages. Any fans of Martina Cole and Kimberley Chambers will be adding Marnie Riches to their 'must buy' list. Born Bad is a belter." (Simon Toyne, international best-selling author of the Sanctus trilogy)Members Reviews:A well-paced, gritty story with plenty of colourful charactersGritty, raw, violent, and at times utterly hilarious, THE COVER UP by Marnie Riches is a very enjoyable novel and my first from this author. While technically a follow-up to Born Bad, this story can be read as a standalone with no problems whatsoever.Sheila O'Brien's husband is dead and it is her turn to shine and take control of her underworld interests, but that doesn't stop her from wanting to broaden her horizons in the form of blue collar crime. But there are those who want to see Sheila fall and with outsiders making their wants known, it isn't long before a war for power ensues.With many colourful characters, there really is something for everyone in this rough and ready tale of power, gangs, and the murky underworld of Manchester city. Naturally, in a story like this, there is plenty of violence, secrets, and lies, but I didn't expect the humour which was a pleasant surprise. The story is told from different characters points of view and it is very well-paced, never getting too slow or drawn out. All in all, I very much enjoyed THE COVER UP by Marnie Riches and it will certainly not be the last book I read by this author.*I voluntarily reviewed this book from the PublisherContact me for any questions: [email protected]
