Looks lovely, eh? Thank you Maxim for choosing to include my tale about an unfortunate incident on the London Tube, <em>The Circle. </em>

First short story I ever wrote. Peroni's standalone outing <em><a href="http://davidhewson.com/the-nic-costa-series/dead-mens-socks-a-roman-short-story/" target="_self">Dead Men's Socks</a> </em>is only the second. Perhaps I should run up some more. Just to be clear... this is a London short story, with no Italians in it whatsoever. A one-off...
