Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

 

“A unique crime writer whose fictional world was brutal, realistic and harrowing in the extreme.”—Guardian

 

When a middle-aged alcoholic is found brutally battered to death on a roadside in West London, the case is assigned to a tough-talking cynic from the Department of Unexplained Deaths. Our narrator must piece together the history of his blighted existence and discover the agents of its cruel end. What he doesn’t expect is that digging for the truth will demand plenty of lying. The first volume in the Factory series, He Died with His Eyes Open is a gripping introduction to Raymond’s bleak, nihilistic world.

Synopsis:

From a cult British author - a riveting, gruesome crime drama
