“A compelling debut from a talented new voice in fiction.
From the opening chapters, I was captivated—drawn into John’s struggle and rooting for his freedom. Tony Hockley crafts a gripping narrative, guiding readers through an emotional and unpredictable journey marked by tension, hope, and transformation. The plot twists are both surprising and satisfying, keeping me fully engaged throughout. Just don’t show your teeth…
I highly recommend this novel and eagerly anticipate Hockley’s next work.”
