Charming, vivid and poignant. This charming, vivid and poignant tale… an incredible journey across a still wild continent that leads to an entirely unexpected and dangerous encounter, all add up to a touching tale of remembrance and, finally, of redemption. (Amazon) (Fishing For Crocodiles)

In this admirably well-researched historical novel by Peter Lawrence the central character, ashamed and ostracized runaway Hampshire farmer’s boy, Ben Jonson, finds himself unwittingly part of a small British army unit bound for South Africa… draws a dynamic and frequently action-packed narrative setting the fictional character’s adventurous life neatly within the veracity of the historical facts of the final decade of the 19th and early 20th century…. I would not hesitate in recommending ‘Smoke and Dust’… (Amazon) (Smoke and Dust)
A cool and intimate story about the dodgy and dangerous underworld of early ’60s English strip clubs, used car hustling and the simmering, about-to-explode pop music scene in London and Hamburg as the transition from blues to Beatles takes place… a stunning but too-young actress/ model/stripper/escort and her on-again off-again struggling musician boyfriend… charming car thieves, underworld characters with a capital C and scamming band managers abound. The details convinced me the author was there. I loved it. (Amazon) (Flash Chord)
