Critics Review

There is a rich ordinariness, a believability, a recognisable quality about Mina’s characters, who are better drawn than those of anyone else writing in her genre in Scotland

Her characterisations and settings are so authentic…There are probably now as many crime writers in Scotland as criminals, but Mina may be the pick of the bunch - DAILY TELEGRAPH

Confirms Mina’s place in the premier division…atmospheric, intense and full of the disturbing flavour of inner-city lowlife - GUARDIAN

There is a rich ordinariness, a believability, a recognisable quality about Mina’s characters, who are better drawn than those of anyone else writing in her genre in Scotland - SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY
