Produktbeschreibung

Simon Brewster is a doomed man. If he doesn't change his ways, he'll never see middle, let alone old age.

He knows that most people generally don't drink white cider for breakfast, don't use the aisle of Tesco as a toilet and don't steal from their family and friends.

At School the careers adviser never suggested stealing Edam balls and legs of lamb as a job and his doctor has never prescribed crack cocaine or heroin. Simon still does these things though and the worst part is, he doesn't know anymore than you do why he continues doing it.

He's seen his parents on their knees, crying, begging him to stop; he's been arrested by his former best mate; he's been hospitalized, all as a result of drug and alcohol abuse. It's just not enough to make him stop.

Simon lies to everyone, including himself. The truth is, he has no more idea why he does the things he does than you do. What he needs is a way out. But if such a thing exists, Simon hasn't had much luck finding it. He's powerless, his life is unmanageable to the point of insanity.

This is the story of Simon Brewster's last year using class 'A' drugs. Join him as he crashes his way through police cells, courtrooms and display cabinets. One way or another, Simon will stop using drugs. But can he overcome his addictions before his addictions destroy him?

Autorenporträt

Pete Sortwell grew up in the sunny Northamptonshire village of Woodford which well known both for featuring on a PG tips card in the 1980's and having a Knights heart on display in one of the pillars in the local church. He knows you're really impressed to have read that.

Leaving school just before his sixteenth birthday Pete worked as a paperboy, chip shop assistant, carer, kitchen monkey and Tenancy support officer, which is about as vague-a job title as you can get.

Being dyslexic Pete never thought his love of storytelling would turn into anything more than telling his mates, he swam the channel when he was three. However, with the drive of someone who wasted a few years up to the age of twenty six Pete hit the ground running. Taking up writing aged 29, that year he was published in Radgepacket and by the next he'd finished his debut novel, So Low, So High and had been short listed in the Lightship publishing flash fiction competition.

He now lives with his wife and daughter and continues to write fiction and along with his novels he is the author of 'The idiot Reviews' series.
