Well, as I come to the 'end' (?) of rewrite three of novel
attempt two, having re-plotted, cut and replaced 35,000 words, I decided
another short story collection was long overdue.
Here's what people are saying about THE COPS OF
MANCHESTER...
“Short, sharp, shocking - and all set in my beloved
Manchester. Great Stuff!” - Mandasue Heller, bestselling crime writer.
“Bury is going places. He shows boldness by tackling
different styles of writing which encompass humour, paranoia, action thrillers
and urban discontent.” - Crimesquad.com
“Col Bury pulls no punches, landing a flurry of hard jabs to
the solar plexus that leaves us breathless. This is tight, gritty, bare-knuckle
writing.” - Howard Linskey, author of The Drop.
“Fast dialogue and edgy plots, keeps you turning the pages.
Cracking!” - Sheila Quigley, author of the Seahills series, and the Holy Island
trilogy.
Product Description...
Ever fancied being a cop?
Could you handle the pressure of hunting down a vigilante
who’s killing criminals at a ferocious rate? Consider how you would deliver a
death message to a distraught parent. Would you protect the public by tailing a
gangster’s vehicle, knowing the occupants were armed? Or follow a suspect into
a dark alley? How would years of dealing with society’s appalling, and often
violent, underbelly affect you? And, does anyone really like a bent cop?
Love them or loathe them, cops run toward danger as everyone
else flees.
With alternating short and longer fiction, The Cops of
Manchester provides an eclectic taste of life as a cop - with a few
'surprises' - in the gritty urban setting of Manchester, UK.
Author’s note: some of these stories are hard-hitting, so
not for the fainthearted.
