Mr Pikes: The Story Behind The Ibiza Legend
MR Pikes: The Story Behind The Ibiza Legend
Is a book like no other, when we were promoting the book, we were looking for something similar that we could market it by, but there wasn't.
It's not every day you come across an autobiography which starts out with learning how to overcoming sexual abuse as a child to becoming an international playboy who built the most famous boutique hotel in the world, where people like Freddie Mercury, George Michael, Julio Iglesias to name a few, called home from home, add in the odd shipwreck or 2 and more than a few thousand sexual partners and misterminas along the way, and when your finished, you'll agree that this book is not just another great read but its perhaps the greatest story every told.
