Produktbeschreibung

It's 1983. Margaret Thatcher has been waging war on the Argentinians in the Falkland Islands. The miners are about to wage war on Margaret Thatcher. And Angus Lovejoy, once sent down from Charterhouse for shagging the Chancellor's daughter in the cricket pavilion, has now landed a job as a copywriter at London adland's creative hot shop Gordon Deedes Rutter where he is teamed up with art director Brian Finkle whose neurotic Jewish parents are the bane of his life. The two are an unlikely duo, but their mischievous and sardonic take on the world makes them a brilliant creative team. Everything goes swimmingly until a bizarre and mysterious murder rocks the world of Gordon Deedes Rutter and ripples out into the national media. While the dearth of evidence leaves the police baffled, Lovejoy and Finkle take it upon themselves to apply their creative brains to solve the mystery, and in so doing, inadvertently get themselves into particularly deep water.

Autorenporträt

Alex Pearl is an extremely short-sighted and slightly shambolic author living in leafy North West London with a wife and overindulged cat. 'Sleeping with the Blackbirds', his first published work of fiction, was first published by Pen Press in 2011. It was longlisted for the Millennium Book Awards 2018 and selected by the Indie Author Project for distribution to public libraries across the US and Canada. In 2014, his short story 'Scared to Death' was published by Mardibooks in its anthology 'The Clock Struck War' to mark the centenary of the First World War. 'The Chair Man' published by Fizgig Press in 2019 is a thriller set in 2005 and is quite possibly the world's first thriller to feature a tetraplegic protagonist waging war on international terrorism. It was a Finalist in the 2021 Wishing Shelf Book Awards. During the Covid epidemic, Alex conducted a series of 100 author interviews, which he published in book form under the title '100 Ways to Write a Book.' All author proceeds are being donated to PEN International. 'A Brand to Die For' is his third work of fiction. His only other claim to fame is that he is almost certainly the only human being on this planet to have been inadvertently locked in a record shop on Christmas Eve.
