Description

Semi-retired god of rock guitar and local poseur Erik Make Loud has got himself a new girlfriend. Helene Hilditch—formerly known as Howlin' Hellbitch—of all-girl punk outfit Blue Tits is a mean guitarist, and someone is trying to kill her.

With a rare pressing of their first album to find, the Vinyl Detective and Nevada are soon called in to help. But this time, the question is: who isn't a suspect? With a trail of grudges behind her, the list of people who could want Helene dead includes her ex-bandmates, their former producer turned record label mogul, the TV presenter that Helene got fired— even their old roadie could be in on it.

The only person who isn't a suspect is Delia Lispector, the Blue Tit's bass player who has already been murdered...

Like an old 45rpm record, this book crackles with brilliance. - David Quantick on The Vinyl Detective: Written in Dead Wax
