I’m really pleased to publish the second book in my cycle of detective novels featuring the hack actor, Billy Vehement. Set in 2008, the novel follows Billy as he’s drawn into the disappearance of one-time performance artist, Stacey Mattick, and the investigation into the stabbing of the grandson to Brixton gospel legend, Beulah Brown.
Untangling the two cases leads Billy through the underbelly of South London and returns him to his past working as a culture spy for the nefarious Peter Priest. As he navigates the worlds of art protest and extreme politics, Billy discovers that old forces have found a new direction, in the mainstream and in the underworld.
