Needle


Geoff Turner, fab writer and all round top bloke is currently the writer to have on your coffee table (well, his book, not him, his family would miss him).

Here's what you need to know:

Cynicism, drugs and rock n roll… Milo Snuff’s dreams are haunted by the ghost of a long dead rock n roll icon. When he starts receiving anonymous telephone calls and letters threatening that he has “5 days to live”, his dreamworld and reality terrifyingly collide taking him on an underground musical journey that includes the world’s shortest lived punk act, a betrayed and psychotic lead singer and the most bizarre Elvis impersonation act ever witnessed. NEEDLE – a darkly comic thriller about the dangers of honest music journalism.


And here's where you need to go
