Reviews for One Night in Turin
Pete Davies is incapable of writing a dull sentence... outrageously entertaining
Daily Post
Exhilarating ... full of drama, full of its own reckless and compelling logic
Indpendent
Riveting, surging, passionately written. The book which made it possible for "football literature" to mean something other than daft ghosted biographies
