Fuelled by Tom Nash's dark humour and razor-sharp wit, Hook, Line and Sinner is a spirited, wild ride of survival, and a case study in reinventing life on your own terms.

Tom Nash has spent his adult life mesmerising audiences around the world, either with his thought-provoking philosophies or hypnotic DJ sets. However, before his career had even begun, Tom was given the slimmest chance of survival after contracting a deadly disease at the age of nineteen, resulting in him losing both his arms and legs. When the unthinkable becomes your reality, where do you turn? Why do you turn? Tom not only went on to survive, but to thrive, taking on life with nothing more than a pair of prosthetic hooks and a dark sense of humour.

An antidote to the cavalcade of inspiration porn and vacuous quotes in our social feed, Hook, Line and Sinner is a shot in the arm, providing an honest, fresh, funny, yet uncompromising take on physical hardship and what can be achieved when almost everything has been taken away. Driven by curiosity, steeped in debauchery and bold in his decision not to become a Paralympian, Nash is the modern-day iconoclast we didn't know we needed, until now.
