Reviews for The Front Seat Passenger: Shocking, hilarious and poignant noir

'The combination of sudden violence, surreal touches and bone-dry humour have led to Garnier's work being compared with the films of Tarantino.' Sunday Times 'A brilliant exercise in grim and gripping irony.' Sunday Telegraph 'Bleak, often funny and never predictable' Observer 'For those with a taste for Georges Simenon or Patricia Highsmith.' The Independent
