“I’m Keeping the Head”
Andy’s first Artemis Grime Mystery Novel
Three friends, all recovering addicts, have their pasts return to haunt them, and learn they’re too nosy for their own good.
Mickey, having fled Italy, his ‘family’, the Carabinieri, and his psychotic ‘best friend’
(all for a beautiful woman), discovers a fake nose just isn’t enough…
Art’s old drug dealers are being murdered, and ever curious, he tries to follow the bloodstained trail, leading him to wonder if the killer is actually performing a public service…
Hannah doesn’t believe her friend Agnes committed suicide and sets out to prove it, using all her charm to dig herself deeper into London’s underworld; the world she’d tried so hard to escape…
Their stories converge, confounding their tiny brains as they attempt to unpick their tangled webs, but the more they try, the messier it gets.
All this and supporting characters:
A sex-worker whose mysterious new client just wants to cuddle, psychotic drug-dealers, snivelling addicts, sociopathic billionaires, weaselly drunkards, stone killers, and one nice person, to balance things out.
A really nice person

Now I know a lot of you might have some reservations about using Amazon, as do I,
but I have my reasons for it.
1. I cannot afford to buy another thousand books (to get them at a reasonable price)
then have to pay for storage, only to sell ten a week.
2. It’s eco-friendly. You can be anywhere in the world and it’ll be printed near to you.
3. It’ll get to you a lot quicker than if you ask me to send it!
Also, if you don’t have Prime, they’ll offer you a free month. Accept it then put it in your calendar to remind you to cancel in 30 days.
“The Reluctant Torturer”
Andy’s second Artemis Grime Mystery Novel
It’s Halloween and everyone is in costume, making it easy to walk into Hannah and Dasha’s party uninvited. A girl goes missing and Dash is determined to find her. But as she slowly closes in, the truth is more horrifying than she imagined.
Art’s former school friend asks him to find a monster from her past. He’s no detective*, but he cannot say no to this siren in need. One by one, they eliminate the suspects until there is only one conclusion: One too terrible to contemplate.
Mickey and Eva have turned Karen Ford’s Sloane Square apartment into a museum, where fans of the world-famous ‘missing’ supermodel can visit to commemorate her passing or continue the quest to discover what happened to her. One visitor knows more than she’s letting on.
