Beskrivning
Winner of the Sunday Times Charlotte Aitken Young Writer of the Year AwardIt's Manchester, 1998, and the funeral party for Henry Bane's father is interrupted by a woman from Bane's past. Róisín is back in his life after an eight-year absence, inconvenient for Jan, his latest flame. Róisín has brought a wounded boyfriend with her - and a lot more trouble is following them up north.Meanwhile, a Yardie who goes by the name of 'Hagfish' wants to take over the local ganglords' territory with Mary, his terrifying weapon of choice. It's Hagfish against Bane in a new turf war: a war that will claim lives and cement vendettas. It's a conflict steeped in half-forgotten history: a history that Bane and Róisín are forever tied to - and which ties them together.

Recensioner i media

"If The Doll Princess was a startlingly original reimagining of noir, then Benn has upped his own game. Chamber Music takes all the genre's most potent elements and makes them new and vital again." -- Cathi Unsworth Guardian "It's so good, I almost forgot to breathe." -- Tom Adair Scotsman "Superb...The result is a kind of Guy Ritchie-esque gangster comedy with infinitely more depth." -- Jake Kerridge Daily Telegraph "A startlingly new, ridiculously stylish, home-grown voice" -- Henry Sutton Daily Mirror "One of the most exciting young British novelists working in any genre."
