Ted Lewis is one of the most important writers you´ve never heard of. His life described a cycle of obscurity to glamour and back to obscurity. He sampled the bright temptations of sixties London while working in advertising, and he encountered excitement and danger in Soho drinking dens, rubbing shoulders with the East End boys. He had some nine books published. Alas, unable to repeat the commercial success of Get Carter, Lewiss life fell apart, his marriage ended and he returned to Humberside and an all too early demise.
