An Eye For An Eye
This is a second edition and part of Near To The Knuckle Novellas
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
When it comes to Neil Doyle’s daughter, Gandhi had no idea.
An accident leaves Jasmine Doyle permanently disfigured, and the patriarch of one of Newcastle’s crime families goes on the warpath to find the perpetrator. He doesn’t care who gets in his way, or what he has to do to them, to get his hands on the man responsible.
Graeme Taylor and ‘Tracksuit’ Tony Gordon find themselves dragged into this brutal quest for vengeance, pushed physically and mentally to the breaking point by all that they see, and all that they are forced to do.
By the end, the streets will run with blood, and no one walks away unscarred.

Paul Heatley
It’s hard to shake the grit of a Paul Heatley novel once you’ve stepped into his world. Stark, unsentimental, and laced with the raw nerve of noir, his stories don’t just depict violence and desperation—they breathe them. Hailing from the northeast of England, Heatley writes like a man who knows what it means to stare down hard truths. His fiction doesn’t flinch, and neither do his characters.
While he’s not a household name, Heatley has carved out a loyal following among crime fiction purists and noir aficionados—readers who crave the dark, the dirty, and the deeply human. His breakout work, The Motel Whore, set the tone early: stripped-down prose, seedy settings, and people clawing for survival. Since then, he’s built a body of work that reads like a bruised knuckle—sharp, direct, and unapologetically raw.
