'Quirky and deeply noir, The Ice Harvest is edge-of-the-seat stuff, but the tension's subtle and the humour's black. Like the film Fargo, The Ice Harvest oozes atmosphere' The Mirror 'This venture into white noir is very much in the league of masters like James M. Cain and Jim Thomson. Truly the real thing and a future classic. Stunning' The Guardian
Charlie has very important things to do before he leaves Wichita, Kansas, where his life revolves around strip joints, the people who run them and the lost, lonely souls who frequent them because they have nowhere else to go on a snowbound Xmas Eve. Certainly he's no angel, but the blizzard of lies and double-crossing that hails down on him from a great height sees Charlie having to think on his feet - observing and doing things that do not bode well for his future. A murderer and his two victims are frozen together under the thick winter ice - what will happen in the spring when the ice thaws? In this debut novel, Phillips mixes violence and sex and twists pathos and black humour into a single taut strand for a thundering denouement. For those readers who enjoy noir fiction, this new author is definitely one to watch. (Kirkus UK)
