Poisoned Saints:

 

 

"This is a great first offering from the author. Fast moving with a number of interesting sub-plots and great characterisations, this is a book I didn't put down once. From start to finish you want to know more. More about the characters, the story and the setting. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who likes modern-day, gritty, crime thrillers."

"Brilliant fast paced book. Never a dull moment.

Recommend it for any crime/thriller fans out there."

Goodreads Review



 

"Coulter does not spare readers from the reality of it all, so if you are not willing to openly enter that world, please don't buy this book and then give it a low rating. This writer deserves to be recognized for creating a revealing piece into the addiction, the subsequent emotional and physical changes of drugs, the loss of control, and, worse, the subsequent violent acts into which this life will lead... In fact, his short bio notes "using the regretful foundation of experience," is how he was able to write this story so effectively! Thank God he got out when he did!

Charlie wasn't so fortunate..."

"Poisoned Saints’ is the first book of a three part series that is filled with just the right amount of death, danger and romance. This is a book that keeps you awake at night; begging you to turn just one more page due to it’s fast pace and gripping nature, which leaves you frustrated with intrigue. ‘Poisoned Saints’ follows the life of a hardened drug dealer after his friend and cocaine distributor is shot dead and leaves him to take the fall. As Charlie Paccadillo is the last person to speak to the victim, DI Jack Cloud pinpoints him as the number one suspect and works at nothing to see the killer behind bars. Mixed with drugs, gangsters and a love interest that is related to his deadliest rivals; ‘Poisoned Saints’ makes for an interesting read as we see Charlie collapse into a cloud of despair as his life becomes a race against time in order to uncover who the real killer is.

The story and characters were brought to life through Coulter’s detailed writing;  it’s real world relevance and realism takes the reader to the dangerous streets of London and allows them to hear the gruff voices of those that reside there. Charlie’s characterisation interested me in particular as Coulter developed him in such a way that I couldn’t help but like him with his vulnerable aspects and witty quips despite him being a dangerous gangster. I thought that the plot was particularly well thought out with it’s twists and turns constantly leaving the reader guessing and musing over who the killer might be. The ending left me in a state of shell shock and annoyance due to the fact that the revelation was a huge slap in the face that I certainly didn’t see coming!

‘Poisoned Saints’ is an enjoyable, past faced thriller that I would recommend to all young adults and adults alike who enjoy a gritty, crime novel read that will leave them shocked and wanting more. I will certainly be reading more of Mr. Coulters work!"
