The Fight in the Dog

In cities like this one, no good deed goes unpunished...

Shaun Mullin has come home.

After a long career working for a tabloid newspaper in London, he's looking for an easier life.

But he won't find it here.

An innocent favour for an old acquaintance pulls Mullin unwittingly into the web of gangland Manchester.

As he fights to escape the clutches of the city's most brutal drug lord - and the attentions of a terrifying newcomer to the scene - the unfortunate Shaun must straddle the lines between crime and the law, good and evil… and life and death.

"Laconic and confident. A wonderfully dark debut" - Ian Moore (Death and Croissants / The Man Who Didn't Burn)

The Fight in the Dog is a smart thriller with a strong northern sensibility and a keen streak of dark humour. It is the first in the ‘redbrick noir’ series featuring journalist Shaun Mullin.

If you relish the psychology of crime and criminals, this series is for you.
