NONCE!
Nestled between the purple haze-infused sexual revolution of the late 1960s and early 1970s, and the anarchic chaos of punk rock, something strange happened in the world of rock music. Glam Rock fused high camp theatricals with driven anthems and fist-pumping tunes. Appealing to the young and impressionable, the movement even dragged in many of contemporary music’s more relevant names.
However, the sins of the period are also well documented, with Gary Glitter and DJ Jimmy Saville being publicly exposed some years later. One name which doesn’t get mentioned as often is Danny Dazzler.
Dazzler’s flame of fame arguably burned brightest in his own mind, but after a short-lived moment in the spotlight, his fall from grace was so odious the music industry and mass media conspired to starve him of the thing he craved most: publicity.
Now, for the first time ever, and more than forty years after he first crawled into the public’s psyche, his story will be told.
Nonce! is a no-holds-barred exposé of Glam Rock’s nastiest specimen.
London, the 1880s. Fear stalks the streets in the form of Jack the Ripper, the slums are suffering an epidemic of crime and depravity, and the population is a seething mass of undesirables and ne’er-do-wells. Many in the capital know of the legendary detective, Sherlock Homes, but not as well known is that further up the staircase, at 221C Baker Street, resides another notable mind in the world of sleuthery.
Offensive, obstinate, devious and depraved, Crust brings an unparalleled cynicism to the world of paranormal investigations, aided by the fact he believes in nothing which doesn’t come in a pint bottle. With the true values of a Victorian gentleman, he sets out to do the thing he loves most: making easy money!
When Crust is on the case, no one is safe!
“Set in Victorian London, Crust, a gentleman with a love of the juice, will do pretty much anything for a few bob, including paranormal investigations. Follow Crust on the case and laugh your arse off in the process.”
“Crust and Susan need a new place to stay, and wouldn’t you know it, the rooms right above Sherlock Holmes are move-in ready. Thus begins Crust’s hilarious investigations. As per usual, Caffrey has lined up a cast of full colour characters and a story full of turns and twists which leads somewhere wildly inappropriate.”
Hee Haw is a dark, pyschological horror, in which nothing is quite what it seems.
When Colin, a middle-aged fantasist and loner who lives with his parents, snatches a girl he finds in the woods, things quickly start to unravel. While his intention is to act out his most depraved fantasies, something about the girl unnerves him. Who is the mysterious Alice, and why does she make him feel so uneasy?
As he learns more about her, he finds himself thrust ever deeper into a world of darkness and duplicity. What is real, and why is he, the abuser, feeling so vulnerable?
Haw Haw is available in paperback and eBook formats. Signed copies are also available.
