My latest novel:
Off The Cuff
Old, skint, and completely fed up with the modern world.
Jack, Baz, and Ronnie are three sixty-something East Londoners who have spent their lives grafting. But when the world decides they are "obsolete" and kicks them to the curb, they find themselves in the same shitty boat: unemployed, broke, and wondering what’s left for a man of their vintage.
Their only refuge is the local pub, The Nag’s Head, where they spend their afternoons doing what they do best: ranting about the state of the world. But when an opportunistic producer captures their unfiltered, grumpy banter on camera, the "Grumpy Amigos" are born.
Suddenly, they’re viral sensations. It feels like the payday they’ve been praying for, but fame is a double-edged sword.
Behind the laughter and the YouTube streams, their lives are spiraling. They find themselves trapped between a police detective closing in on local corruption and an Irish crime syndicate that sees them not as "stars," but as the perfect cover for money laundering.
Caught in a pincer movement between the law and the mob, with Ronnie’s health failing and the bills piling up, the Amigos are forced into a high-stakes game of survival. From mopping floors at tech startups to navigating the murky waters of the East End underworld, they’ll have to rely on their wits—and each other—to make it out alive.
They’re Old, But Not Obsolete. And they’re about to prove it—one way or another.
