Rock and a Hard Place by Stephen J Martin
'What is a chance at your dream worth?' Being a rock star was all Jimmy ever wanted, but it was supposed to happen when he was seventeen, not in his thirties. Jimmy had spent the best part of twenty years building a career. He studied, he got a great job and he had worked hard at it. He was being groomed for stardom all right, but his stage was to be in a boardroom, not a beer-soaked and panty-strewn concert hall. Now, it's coming to the crunch. While the band are wondering why his phone keeps ringing at rehearsals, his boss in work is wondering why he keeps coming into the office with bags under his eyes. Jimmy is starting to crack under the pressure. He's even started to call round to his Mam for chats in the evenings. The doctor is telling him to take a holiday - Greece, maybe? But his boss and his manager have other ideas. Jimmy's going away all right, but he's going a lot further than Greece...
Stephen J. Martin was born and raised in Dublin, spent most of the last ten years in Tokyo and now lives in Sydney. Steve has acted and directed for the stage, been the lead singer in a successful rock band in Tokyo and also designs computer systems for investment banks. His first novel was the hugely successful Superchick.
