About this listen

Danger. Deceit. Detectives. Drugs. Dark secrets. And a spot of yoga.

Waffle Jones has a problem: his girlfriend has left him and he’s not sure why.

It could be because he can’t hold down a job, is totally unreliable, and fritters all their money away on dope, lager and chicken bhuna, but who knows for sure?

Still, he decides to clean up his life, get his act together, and win her back. The plan goes swimmingly for the first ten minutes until a large and mysterious bag lands at his feet. What’s inside leads to him being pursued across London by villains, detectives, and yoga instructors.

So now he has a very big problem. If only he was aware of it.

Fast-paced, darkly funny, and full of twists, romance, and moral dilemmas, this is London crime fiction with a Guy Ritchie kick and a surprisingly big heart.

From the Amazon bestselling author of From Nags to Numbnuts and Stable Condition comes this hilarious debut novel

******************

Ideal for fans of Richard Osman, Bob Mortimer, and Caimh McDonnell.

This is an easy-to-listen-to fun and silly and thoroughly enjoyable crime caper, with a hapless and very likeable main protagonist and an entertaining supporting cast. The further through it I got the more I was rooting for Waffle!

Fun and entertaining, can’t help rooting for Waffle!
