All Reviews - We Go Around in the Night and Are Consumed by Fire
Write a review.

If urban fiction is meant to be gritty… gritty is what you will get. We Go Around in the Night and are Consumed by Fire deals with grit such as torture, murder and violence, as well as the heartbreaking effects of poverty on children and families. Despite her gang associations and life of organised crime, Donna, a lesbian in her late twenties is smart, likeable, real and extremely loyal. When the story changes to being narrated by ten-year-old Aurora, the incredible authenticity of the little girl’s voice both delights and heartbreakingly dismays.

Brutal, tender and funny. Jules Grant grabs you by the scruff of the neck and drags you through the mean streets of Manchester's underworld in this edgy, no-holds-barred crime thriller.

Paul McVeigh

A heartbreaking and tender read about the relationships that tie us together.

Yorkshire Post

Original, moving and written in a blistering prose style that is thrilling to read, this book is the real raw deal.
