[Sutton's hero's] a paranoid mess. A lying loser. A stony broke snob. And Sutton nails him perfectly in pacy thriller form
Helen Brown, Daily Telegraph
A 21st century London update of American Psycho
WBQ
A cross between Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho and Martin Amis's Money
Daily Telegraph
A slice of bleakly comic urban paranoia
Big Issue
Blisteringly angry..,begins as a black comedy but gradually turns much darker with the mad-as-hell narrator suspected of murdering his lovers in London
Sunday Telegraph
Gripping and darkly comic tale of 21st-century material greed
Shortlist
Henry Sutton - who writes like a dream - has pulled off what Tom Wolfe did for the greed-is-good 80s in Bonfire of the Vanities. He has written - with black, comic brilliance - about out times

The Wharf
Its ace, addictive and enthralling

Carla McKay, Daily Mail
This is a crime novel that jangles with the best sort of Highsmithian bug-eyed paranoia, but it's also a savage satire on our over-inflated expectations and sense of entitlement. A dark comedy in the style of early Martin Amis, Get Me Out of Here will have you laughing and flinching at the same time
Laura Wilson, Guardian
Totally brilliant and I haven't ever read anything quite like it
The Sun
Very slick and very British; a tricky combo to pull off
GQ online
