| Summary |
Meet Jay. Small-time dealer. Accidental jihadist. The one man who can save us all? Shortlisted for the 2021 Edgar Awards Javid – call him Jay – is a dope dealer living in West London. He goes to mosque on Friday, and he's just bought his pride and joy – a BMW. He lives with his mum, and life seems sweet. But his world is about to turn upside-down. Because MI5 have been watching him, and they think he's just the man they need for a delicate mission. One thing's for sure: now he's a long way East of Hounslow, Jay's life will never be the same again. With the edgy humour of Slough House and the pulse-racing tension of The Bodyguard, East of Hounslow is the first in a series of thrillers starring Jay Qasim. Praise for East of Hounslow "Excellent book. Phenomenal writing." — BA Paris, author of Behind Closed Doors "Educated me about some of the most urgent issues of our time while making me repeatedly snort with laughter." — Telegraph "Told with striking panache. Announces the arrival of a fine, fresh new thriller writer" — Daily Mail "As much a coming-of-age story as a full-on action thriller, East of Hounslow is thought-provoking and entirely gripping." — Guardian 'A brilliant thriller. You'd be mad not to buy this. " — Ben Aaronovitch, author of Rivers of London |
