Murder. Theft. Sociopaths. And Margate. Just another
day in banking then...
It’s pre crash 2007 and
financial investment banker Josh Dedman’s life is unravelling fast. He’s fired
after £20 million goes missing from the bank. His long-time girlfriend has
cheats on him, then dumps him. His only friends are a Russian tramp who claims
to be ex-KGB and a really irritating bloke he’s just met on the train. His waking
hours are a nightmare and his dreams are haunted by a mystery blonde. And to
cap it all, he lives in Margate…
Just when Josh thinks things
can’t get any worse his sociopathic boss — Hershey Valentine — winds up dead
and he finds himself the number one suspect. As the net closes in Josh
discovers that no one is quite what they seem, including him, and that
sometimes help comes from the most unlikely sources…
Part fiction, part lies
(well, it is about banking) and excruciatingly funny, The Fix pulls no punches
when revealing the naked truth of a man living a life he loathes.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Keith Nixon has been writing since he was a child. In
fact some of his friends (& his wife) say he's never really grown up. Keith
has a sales role for a tech company meaning he gets to use his one skill,
talking too much. However he spends much of his time by the sea in Broadstairs
where Charles Dickens briefly lived & was the inspiration for The 39 Steps.
Keith has published a crime /
humour novel The Fix & has a
historical fiction series on the way. He has also written comedy and drama
screenplays. His measure of achieving success is when he can ditch socks, watch
and tie forever.
Oh yes, & he likes to
read. A lot. Crime, thrillers, humour, mystery, fantasy as long as they're well
written of course...
