ABBEY'S CHOICE MAY 2016 ----- Jeff Foster is an Australian music journalist on assignment in New York. He's lined up an interview with the newest rap sensation, and the article should go a long way to paying some bills. Jeff is getting tired and starting to feel old in a young man's game, and paying court to a surly boy with a great sense of entitlement and none of reality, is just another price he has to pay to follow what was once his dream. This very finely wrought story is presented as the first novella in a linked set of five, the next four to be released at monthly intervals. For the price of a movie ticket, the reader can immerse themselves in a story that will more than repay their attention without demanding the greater commitment of a lengthy book. This is a perfectly formed story, that carries a lot more insight into the human condition than books of more verbage manage to do. Highly recommended indeed. Lindy
