Zero

Published 22 March 2014
Eddie Zero is not your usual hero. He is a successful professional drummer from the 90's whose four interests in life are blondes, mozart, marijuana and cricket. This, his first novel, takes us from Barbados to a Bedouin encampment in the Jordanian desert, via Beirut and Swindon! You will find, amongst some beautiful women, turtles, transvestites, paedophiles, camels and drug taking. Eddie does not know how to use a gun or hit someone. He refers to himself as a wimp. He loves life, most of the time, and this novel will make you laugh, be shocked and maybe cry.
