Catford Dogs by Andy Burns is the first book in the new Miles Askew stories series and Andy’s debut novel.
Catford, South-east London, 2003. Miles Askew, charming but feckless, works for a small-time private investigation agency. Born to privilege, at 38 his career and relationships are a car crash.
One August weekend Miles’ easy existence is obliterated when a lover gives him an alarming ultimatum, and a seemingly straightforward investigation into local greyhound racing erupts with the suspicious death of a colleague.
As Miles desperately grapples for atonement and justice, he is forced to confront both ruthless criminal conspirators and his own conflicted loyalties. Bribery, blackmail and violent death play out against a shifting social backdrop of Blair’s England and Catford’s criminal past, and Miles finds the odds of escaping unscathed increasingly stacked against him.
Catford Dogs is Andy Burns’s stunning debut. It’s a nostalgic look at the nineties, with many twists and turns that keep you guessing and intrigued to know what happens next. The book is well-paced and quite funny in places.
It’s an exciting start to a new series that makes you want to read more from the author.
