Just Deserts

Description

Derek and Sandra Tile believe karma requires a little help on occasion; that sometimes comeuppances need expediting for the greater good.

Opening in their hometown of Reading, where Derek and Sandra issue notices to poorly parked motorists, before moving to a holiday complex in Wales, where they take an unconventional approach to dealing with their neighbour’s noisy dog, Just Deserts follows the Tiles over the course of seven days as their actions in the name of order and balance become more and more extreme.  

Jerry Crowther’s debut novel is an original dark comedy full of colourful characters whose actions will cause the reader to laugh, rage and cringe in equal measure.

Jerry Crowther lives in West Berkshire with his wife. While working as an EFL teacher in London he wrote a number of pilot scripts for the BBC comedy department; none of these were ultimately produced, nor was any money. After spending the next few years renovating listed buildings and constructing eco houses in Devon, he returned to writing fiction relatively recently.
