$35.60 AUD
A recently-discovered, long-lost novel and short stories from the 90s featuring private eye Nick Sharman.
Follow Sharman as he patrols his seedily glamorous South London beat, with its cast of villains, eccentrics, misfits and losers. A magnet for trouble, even when he is on holiday in the country, he has a habit of inadvertently ending up on the wrong side of the law and at the wrong end of a shotgun. In this high-risk world, people are seldom what they seem and nothing can be taken for granted.
'The king of the British hard-boiled thriller.' — Times
'The mean streets of South London need their heroes tough. Private eye Nick Sharman fits the bill.' — The Telegraph
'Hard-boiled story-telling with attitude.' — Daily Mail
'It is possible that South London contains some law abiding citizens in conventional relationships but they make no appearance in Timlin's immoral, wildly enjoyable books.' — Times
'A pure pulp vision closer to Spillane than Chandler. The Sharman books are bloody romances of the South London badlands.' — John Williams
'Nick Sharman is like black coffee at 4 o'clock in the morning: very black, very bitter.' — Derek Raymond
