Brit Grit Alley features news and updates on what's happening down British crime fiction's booze and blood soaked alleyways.
This week down Brit Grit Alley:
Out Now: The Bank Manger and the Bum by Darren Sant.
The Blurb:
'When branch manager Giles Macintosh arrives to open up one
morning and finds an injured bum and his battered dog lying in the doorway of
the bank, he little suspects what lies in store for them all.
Giles does the decent thing and calls for help, then puts
the incident out of his mind. However, having been witness to things he cannot
explain, he feels drawn to the man and tries to track him down … only to find
he has vanished.
But who is the enigmatic, homeless Frank? Why are two very
nasty men trying to find him? Why has a prostitute been abducted? And what does
the future hold for Giles’s seriously ill son, Jake?
Darren Sant skilfully weaves the various strands to create a
compelling story that is as unflinching as it is heart-warming.
As the story unfolds, the tension increases and the true
nature of Frank’s amazing secret begins to be revealed. The stakes are high as
the criminal and the supernatural come together for a final, inevitable
showdown.'
Also, Gloves Off - the anthology that Darren Sant edited with Craig Douglas - will be FREE from Amazon on 6 June.
Both books have fantastic covers courtesy of Steve Miscandlon.
