Blog Tour: Promo Post for A Deadly Deal by Simon Fairfax
Delighted to be part of this fabulous blog tour. Huge thanks to the author and Rachel's Random Resources for inviting me.
A Deadly Deal is set in 1986 (around the time I was at Uni, so it's an era of nostalgia for me) and is about corruption and deceit. What appealed to me most about this book is the attention that is given to characterisation, which is always a key factor for me. I'm looking forward to reading more about Rupert Brett and the shenanigans of '80's London.
It's already had some fab reviews and I am looking forward to reading it myself - It's near the top of my ever growing TBR pile.
For now though, here's the blurb ...
Moneymakers
are king, no matter their methods. When an honest man stumbles into their world
of deceit,
will they drag him down to destruction?
London, 1986. Rupert Brett is eager to make his mark. But even
though he’s newly qualified to tackle jobs within the cutthroat property
brokering industry, his ambitions are blunted when he must face off against
ruthless competitors. And with his career on the line, he finds himself adrift
in the murky waters of insider trading where knowledge is the real currency.
Clinging to his ideals but beginning to realize how deep the
corruption goes, Rupert’s unprepared when a group of hard-nosed developers
frame him for murder. With few friends and the law on his tail, his only way
out may be a bargain with the devil.
Can the young surveyor thwart his enemies’ plans in time to save
his reputation and his life?
A Deadly Deal is the immersive first
book in the Deal Series of historical crime thrillers. If you like conflicted
characters, rich period details, and complex plotting, then you’ll love Simon
Fairfax’s gritty page-turner.

More about the Author
As a lover of crime thrillers and mystery, I turned what is seen by others as a dull 9 – 5 job into something that is exciting, as close to real life as possible, with Rupert Brett, my international man of mystery whose day job is that of a Chartered Surveyor.
Rupert
is an ordinary man thrown into extraordinary circumstances who uses his wit,
guile and training to survive.
Each
book is written from my own experiences, as close to the truth as possible, set
against world events that really happened. I go out and experience all the
weapons, visit the places Rupert travels to, speak to the technical experts and
ensure that it as realistic, as possible allowing you to delve deep in to the
mystery, losing yourself in it for a few hours.
