Hi everybody Andy here just before we start this week's show I have a little announcement to make

We're in plug corner because I have written a book I have offended again against all the people who say don't don't do another one just stop at

two and I've written a third one and this one for the first time ever I've written

something that is fun and funny as well as being gripping it's called a beginner's guide to breaking and

entering. It's about a young man called Al who lives in gorgeous empty second

homes while the real owners are away. He's got a whole set of rules to help him get

into these beautiful houses he could never afford to live in. He has a great life

until about chapter 3 when he and his friends break into the wrong house on the

wrong day, somebody ends up dead, and everything goes wrong from there.

It's funny, it's gripping, it's pacey. There's a little bit of a message about housing in there.

It's a perfect summer read, People have been really nice about it.

Val McDermott, Lisa Jewel, some of the Queens of Crime have been incredibly kind about it.

It's out on the 25th of April, so if you order it now, you will be among the first cohort globally

to receive your gorgeous copy and

they're really nice looking copies.

Please do pre-order it.

It can really be the difference between a book flying and not flying

if it has a few pre-orders under its belt

before that crucial first week.

It's out in all good bookshops.

It's out in all bad bookshops.

It's in most bookshops in the Commonwealth, basically.
