About the Author:
Hugh Collins was born and brought up in Glasgow. In 1977 he was sentenced to life imprisonment for a murder that took place in a Glasgow bar. Released in 1992, he has since written two volumes of autobiography - Autobiography of a Murderer (1998) and Walking Away (2000), as well as two novels, No Smoke (2001) and The Licensee (2002). He is married and lives in Edinburgh.
Review:
Think Kelman in a Crombie with a chib and a chuckle. Brand new, so it is. -- Ron McKay * * Sunday Herald * * Hugh Collins creates entertainingly devious characters and then mercilessly dispatches them, leaving the reader to mourn them only as long as it takes for the next vicarious thrill to come along. No Smoke is a Glaswegian Goodfellas with its vertiginous buzz accentuated by a steadfastly unjudgemental narrative voice. -- Christpher Brookmyre, on No Smoke Dark yet funny, uncompromising and compelling. No Smoke stands comparison with Chester Himes at his best. -- Quintin Jardine, on No Smoke
