DISCOUNT ALERT
The hardback edition of Letters to the Pianist - which is beautiful quality in my humble opinion - has been reduced on Amazon UK from £18.99 to £6.86. One third of the price, and £3 cheaper than the paperback! 🙃
NB: This has not been arranged by me or my publishers, but by Amazon for their sale. So grab a copy now before the price goes up.
Apologies to members outside of the UK, but the discount is only available on Amazon UK. Although someone in the US, did email me to say they managed to buy one last time they did this offer on UK Amazon.
And if you grab a copy, I hope you enjoy it!

'Letters to the Pianist has a gripping and multi-layered plotline, authentic characterisation, which had me fall in love with Joe by the conclusion. Fascinatingly informative on the strength of Fascist sympathizers in wartime London society. This book is a five star read.'
