Breaking Even
My book, Breaking Even, a crime/noir collection including the novella of the title, is now available for Kindle download.
Described as, 'Pure Liverpool noir', by Owen Laukkanen, and 'Like car crashes you can't look away from', by Mike Miner, the stories in Breaking Even are fast paced and hard hitting in the noir/pulp tradition.
Look forward to people's comments.
