Product Description
Anybody who has read Danny Birch's groundbreaking first novel, 'Clipped', will be expecting a fast-paced, sharply-written, emotionally charged gangster thriller, written in Danny's inimitably catchy, witty and streetwise style.
If so, prepare yourself for 'Get Some', a gangster revenge thriller that fizzes and crackles off the page like few others.
It is the tale of two childhood friends, Tommy and Joey, and of how they stand by each other in traumatic times. Tommy's trauma is to be betrayed by an army colleague to a militant group in Iraq and to be subjected to routine and gruesome torture. Pity his betrayer should Tommy manage to escape. And Joey's trauma? Ah, for that, you have to read this book.

About the Author
Danny Birch was brought up on the notorious Bransholme Estate, Hull, as one of five children. He started learning martial arts at the age of six and was a Black Belt by the age of fourteen. He now works in a law firm, producing a stream of highly-charged gangster thrillers in his spare time. 'Danny Birch is a Nick Hornby of the streets, managing to raise tears of laughter, anger and sadness, sometimes all in the same sentence, amid breath-taking displays of absolute human decency and of degrading, gut-churning violence. He is one of the first writers of the Facebook / Twitter age, and definitely a writer to follow', Tim Roux, author of 'The Dance of the Pheasodile' and 'Missio'.
