RARA-AVIS: Rawhead

Today I picked up a book called Rawhead by David Bowker (there was a second Rawhead book there, too). Its subtitle, A Gothic Gangster Story, almost scared me off. The jacket copy describes a story of a writer who pisses off a gangster whose autobiography he's ghosting. The gangster hires a hitman, but it turns out he's an old school friend of the writer's and decides to protect him instead. Unfortunately, a psychotic hitman may not be the best friend to have. The excerpted reviews make it sound like twisted fun, but I could see it going either way.

Has anyone read this? Is it any good?

Mark
