 Review by Nicole Lindsay in the Books section of the Herald Sun, 23 August 2008.

 Done Deal, set in the mean streets of inner-city Richmond, is a gripping little crime story narrated by former English secret service agent Bromo Perkins. Bromo, in exile after a botched operation, is interrupted during coffee in a Bridge Rd café by a blackmailing blonde. It’s the start of a bumpy ride extending from the Boulevard in South Yarra to the MCG and a stalled development site very similar to the one at the end of Highett St. Some characters are sketchy but Richmond is lovingly and accurately rendered.

 

Done Deal is now available through Collins Booksellers in Bridge Road, Richmond, and the wonderful BookTalk Cafe in Swan Street, Richmond
