Many thanks Ben Myers. 'Independent publishing is where all the best stuff happens. Here is where the risk taskers, the dreamers and the outsiders gather. Without the indies, literature would be a blander and more homogonous place. All hail the mighty 'Moose!' @thebookseller.com

Stench: The Axe in The Head Murder by G.M. Barden is based on a true story - the 1987 murder of Daniel Morgan in a South London car park. The crime is still unsolved. This novel suggests who might have killed him and why. “blistering, paranoid, and all too plausible.” Londonopia

Black Rat Books is a fiercely independent London press publishing fiction from the underside of modern Britain. Gritty but literary, we champion writers who dig beneath the surface sheen of modern Britain to expose what festers beneath.
