Introducing: Beasley Street (The Penny Detective Series)
The Penny Detective Series has been designed to be read in any orderMorris Shannon is hired as a personal bodyguard to a 1960s rock band making a comeback, but the job leads to something far more sinister. Morris gets involved in a double murder and kidnapping, and the deeper in he gets the more sinister and evil the plot becomes. The decaying streets of Liverpool form the backdrop to this 1980s noir detective story that as always is loaded with subtle local humor, and suspense.
Can Morris and Shoddy solve this baffling murder, mystery? All will be revealed in this new Penny Detective story, but as usual, not until the final page.
Warning: This book will not be a life-changing experienceFans of intellectual literature should look away now, or try something more classical. All Penny Detective Books contain no messages, big words, or complicated plots, but they will, hopefully, while away a couple of hours and entertain. If you are still not convinced, the terrific thing about Amazon is that you can read the first couple of chapters for free. Believe me; these books don't get any better or worse after that.
John Tallon Jones (author)John Tallon Jones is to literary intellectuals what John Milton (Paradise Lost) and Leo Tolstoy were, to having a 'good laugh.' This is disposable fiction at the sharp end, nothing more.
What are people saying about the Penny Detective?
Liverpool Echo'Take Hercule Poirot, Philip Marlowe, and Inspector Clouseau rolled into one, and you have the Penny Detective. This is a highly imaginative five-star read.'
Post Online'The author has made the main character, Morris Shannon, vulnerable and sarcastic and I can relate to this, as will most readers. The creation of an alcoholic, but brilliant, sidekick is inspirational, and this alone makes it different to anything else you will ever read.'
GoodreadsIf you don't know the Penny Detective series, grab a book now, you might be missing a killer!
Chester MailClassic noir with a twist and some good old-fashioned British humour. The Penny Detective seems to get better and better.
