Giveaway 8: "Playing Harry" by Nick Wastnage

You've all heard me talking about Nick Wastnage!

He, in his own words, says: I’m a crime writer. I write about people involved in sinister deeds like murder, extortion and retribution. I’ve worked in a seaside arcade, as a record salesman, a decorator, a merchant banker, a marine and a retailer. I was once shot by terrorists and winched from the jungle into a helicopter and flown to hospital. I live with my wife in Bucks. I’ve written six crime novels, all are available in print form. If you’d like to know more about them, please visit my website. You can contact me through the site. I will reply.

Mr. Wastnage generously has offered five copies of his very excellent Playing Harry for this giveaway.

The winner will receive a coupon for Smashwords, where they can download the ebook in whatever format they prefer!

This is another book I edited, so I don't have any reviews by me to which to refer you, but I can tell you it is a very good book. Here's the description: Harry Fingle is trying to find his brother’s killer. On his brother’s computer, he discovers a mysterious encrypted file that he thinks contains a cure for HIV. Together with his ex-girlfriend, Amie, and six other tragically flawed strangers, he becomes immersed in a violent and disturbing international conspiracy, that unearths the criminal activities of two of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies, and exposes the American and British security services as having blood on their hands.


Playing Harry is the story of one man’s epic fight against powerful organisations. His terrifying journey brings him back into contact with his former partner, who never came to terms with their break-up; a successful career woman, grieving over the death of her teenage son; a sad, pathetic alcoholic, who’s continually trying to kick the habit; and a supposedly-reformed drug dealer, who can’t escape his past.
