Reviews
"An astonishingly good debut. Wonderfully rounded characters, misfits all, who we really care about, in a compelling story laced with humour and humanity. Callum McSorley is an outstanding new writer who is destined to become a very big name in the genre." - Peter James
"A good many ghastly things happen in Squeaky Clean, and McSorley doesn't spare you the details; but this is also a comic novel, with characters who are, no matter how frightening and violent, absurd." - Book Brunch
"Gritty, bloody and oozing with the menace of the underworld... McSorley has crafted an accomplished novel that is already being hailed as a classic of the Tartan Noir genre. [Squeaky Clean] cracks along at a rare pace, and combines an easy writing style, an ear for dialogue and a nice line in dry wit... The sort of page-turner which ensures that once you've started, you'll keep going until the final, gripping denouement." - Scottish Field
