"The Old Razzle Dazzle: a London Hustle Book"

Some men are born for the stage. Some are born for nothing at all. How Izzy rose from the gutter to the heights of fame is a story he tells to few. A story as strange as any he’s staged in his four decades on London’s West End. A story of love and loss, heartache and forgiveness, of wanting what you cannot have, of daring to do the impossible. When an idealistic young singer joins his theatre company, Izzy finds himself looking back on his earliest days, though why he dares to trust this wide-eyed dreamer with his dirty secrets is a secret all its own. A welcome? Or a warning? For Izzy knows the pitfalls of a life on stage. And that getting what you want can be just what you don’t need. Yet in the telling of his tale, each man will discover the heights one can reach when lifted by true love. A sweet and heartfelt Queer Historical novel of love and redemption set against the backdrop of the dawn of a new century.
