Fish Bone Alley | David Burrows
5 posts | 1 read
Already there's several prostitutes hanging around, one's even hanging out of a third-story window by her neck.From the slums of Victorian London to the very echelons of high society and everywhere in between, follow the exploits of two of Scotland Yard's finest; Detective Inspector Gerald Potter and Detective Sergeant Richard Head, as in between getting drunk and helping themselves to 'rewards' they ruthlessly pursue some of the vilest criminals you have ever read about.Taste the poverty and despair of every day slum life along side the vibrant chaos that fuels the machine of survival.A wealth of characters frequents these off the wall, seriously black comedies; smelly urchins, prostitutes, all manner of criminals, lords and ladies alike.The mad, bad, and truly eccentric.

Not liking black comedy films I was prepared not to like this book which consists of 8 short stories. Certainly the first 2 stories had me wondering if I'd wasted my money buying it. By the 3rd I had become used to the authors writing and started to enjoy what I was reading. By the end I would not hesitate in recommending this book as a must read. Such simple stories portrayed in a very special unique way by this some what nutty author.

The author has got back to me and the answer to the anagram is 'We Buy Any Crap'

Page 6 of this book starts - At last we're outside the Pawnbrokers. Proprietor: Bray Waunepcy, (I quickly solve the anagram in the name) - Well neither my partner nor I could solve the anagram so I have sent a message asking the author but I haven't had a response yet. Anyone have any idea what the answer may be?
