was something of a nearly man. His debut novel was reasonably successful;
his second was turned down as being too like the first. Thanks to procrastination
and heavy drinking, he has published nothing since.
Settled now in Brighton, where he ekes out a living running a market bric-a-brac

learns of the existence of a long-lost manuscript by a famous novelist, now dead,
and resolves to get hold of it, pass it off as his own and thus give his wilted career
a kick-start.
Unfortunately, little in Duffy's disordered life ever runs smoothly, particularly on this
crowded weekend...
