He writes novel[s] with the force of memoir: moments of awkwardness captured in aching detail; snatches of dialogue with freshness and authenticity… beautifully rendered.’

Billy Palmer grew up in a sleepy rural village, but his dreams were always for something else, something beyond the world he knew. As a child, this desire for the unexplored got him into trouble, as a teenager it drove him to adventure , and as an adult it propels him across the Atlantic to the dazzling lights of Manhattan, where the excitement he’s craved seems finally to come within his grasp, but at what price?…

Engaging, evocative, and flawlessly paced, The Billy Palmer Chronicles is a pitch-perfect tale of one man’s search for the life he’s imagined.
