    About this ebook

    Secret Service Agent Jack Shields has a secret…He’s not really Jack Shields.Down and out bouncer, John Ryan, finally had a good night at the track. It’ll buy him some time from the various mobs he owes. Before the night is done, his luck will really change when he gets an offer he can’t refuse—to be Jack Shields. He’ll need help pulling it off, especially since the bank CEOs he’s supposed to be protecting are being targeted for execution. If he can’t, the only question is—what will come to an end sooner, his secret or his life?

      It's Crying Time

      Nov 15, 2023

      I was about 13, on a sofa in front of the television on a wet Saturday afternoon. I was carelessly able to do that once – sigh. I was watching a black-and-white film. Or maybe the TV was black-and-white – probably. It was a story about a nanny caring

      Robin Ince Is On The Road

      May 29, 2023

      I was under my favourite railway arch turned bar when the ghost of a stand-up comedian came and tapped my skull. It was not Tommy Cooper or Little Tich, it was a ghost of me. I spent much of my working life defined as a stand-up comedian, though I al
