About this title

Synopsis

1980: The year the SAS became both famous and infamous. Unemployment reached a staggering 1.9 million. The Iron Lady held the reins of power, and The Police dominated the airwaves with their chart-topping hit, 'Don't Stand So Close to Me.'

In this turbulent backdrop, a kid with a taste for Guinness, weed, and motorbikes crosses paths with an aspiring actress in a smoky country pub. What follows is a whirlwind of events: a kiss under Cleopatra's Needle, a fateful incident in a pub, and a peculiar investigation led by a tea-and-biscuit-obsessed detective. Along the way, a bull named Hector makes an unforgettable appearance.

About the Author

Tyrone Dines was born in 1962, the year Z-cars aired on the BBC and the Cuban missile crisis happened, although he says none of these events are linked to his birth.

Raised in rural Buckinghamshire, he occasionally went to school. Found work as varied as a truck driver, diver, and finally a suspension technician, he's travelled extensively, and now lives in the mountains in Northern Italy with his wife, Giulia, and their miniature wolf, Maisy.

This is his first published work.
