I thought I’d let you know that I am currently aiming at having Hollywood Bilker ready for sale by October, although I will do my level best to beat that date if I am at all able. At this point, I have sent Alex into the heart of the Bay of Pigs crisis and he …
I thought I’d let you know that The Bowery Slugger is now available in a hardback version. Right now it can only be purchased from Amazon US or Amazon UK but I may widen that to include other websites in due course. You can also buy it direct from my web site, as ever. To be …
First of all, apologies for not putting out a newsletter for quite a while. I had some personal matters that needed to get sorted out that had an impact on my ability to type words. I am hoping that is behind me now. So, I’m still writing book six in the Alex Cohen series about …
Starting from the launch of Cuban Heel, anyone who buys direct from my website will receive a 20% discount promo code to use with the next book you buy from me. As you can imagine, this code only works on my site–you can’t use it on Amazon, Kobo etc–but it is one of the ways …
I am pleased to announce that Cuban Heel is now available for sale at all good retailers (Amazon from April 3, for the record). This is the fifth book in the Alex Cohen series and follows Alex’s life as he relocates to Havana and helps Meyer Lansky fulfil his dream of building Las Vegas in …
I’m a week or so away from launching Cuban Heel, book 5 in the Alex Cohen series, onto a suspecting world. I’ve received the manuscript back from my editor and I’m putting the finishing touches to it as I type (not literally as I can’t use two keyboards at once, successfully). If you want to …
I thought I’d announce that I have started writing my twelfth full-length novel. As I implied only last week, it is book six in the Alex Cohen series and is called Hollywood Bilker. I don’t want to go into a lot of detail right now–suffice to say that it takes place in the 1960s, the …
I’ve been doing a little bit of research into Jewish gangster involvement in the 1960s US and found out that Jack Ruby was a fan of JFK because of the president’s attitude to the Jews. The guy who eventually killed Lee Harvey Oswald also knew Sam Giancana, a well-known Mafia kingpin who had invested in …
As predicted last week, I am pleased to announce that I have finished the first draft of Cuban Heel, the fifth book in the Alex Cohen series. It is set in the 1950s and follows Alex as he journeys to Havana to help Meyer Lansky build Las Vegas in the Southern Hemisphere. Now all I have …
This isn’t something I don’t do very often but between January 15 and 19 on the Kobo platform, the Bowery Slugger is taking part in a First in Series offer where you can buy it for only 0.99, but you must be in the US or Canada for the offer. Wait! Before you give up …
