"Ian Rankin once explained to an interviewer (the head of the Indian Communist Party!) that crime fiction is a way of talking about social inequality. Ron Jacobs applies that same maxim to the Sixties... in his wonderfully noir trilogy of those exhilarating and troubled times. And what Rankin does for Edinburgh, Jacobs amply illuminates for the Movement. Much much more than ripping yarns (though they are that too), from a master who's been there, done that, and lived to tell a tale or two."

Please Help Me Get My New Book Done!
I am never comfortable asking for money. However, I am doing exactly that this one time. Please click on the link below for a description of my current book project. There is a Contribute btton there, as well. In case, you are wondering--I have a written agreement with a publisher and have already written around 15,000 words of the book. The publication date looks like it will be in autumn of 2023. Please seriously consider donating. Any amount helps.
Thanks for your time and support.
