Summary
 The Vinyl Detective goes punk in his fifth hilarious adventure.

Semi-retired god of rock guitar and local poseur Erik Make Loud has got himself a new girlfriend. Helene Hilditch - formerly known as Howlin' Hellbitch - of all-girl punk outfit Blue Tits is a mean guitarist, someone is trying to kill her. With a rare pressing of their first album to find, the Vinyl Detecive and Nevada are soon called into to help but this time the question is who isn't a suspect. With a trail of grudges behind her, the list of people who could want Helene dead includes her ex-bandmates, their former producer turned record label mogul, the TV presenter that Helene got fired - even their old roadie could be in on it.

"Like an old 45rpm record, this book crackles with brilliance." DAVID QUANTICK on Written in Dead Wax.

I’ve read all the books in the series so far and I’m loving these characters (and the cats.) The stories are a lot of fun and the narrator does a great job of bringing the characters to life. Set around London suburbs with a murder mystery to solve, the plot is fast moving with some suspense and a lot of humour. I can’t wait to get stuck into the next adventure.

Great narration and great characters.

I love these Vinyl Detective stories! Always entertaining, intriguing, and witty. As a crime novel addict, I appreciate a break from the usual and even obligatory post-mortem scene (some police detectives seem to have an unhealthy compulsion to attend post-mortem examinations) and, instead, follow the unnamed Vinyl Detective and his charming 'honey pie' Nevada in their dogged quests for rare vinyl records and upmarket secondhand fashion while simultaneously dodging danger and solving crime.

With 'Low Action' the author has delivered another sparkling installment in a series which just keeps getting better.

The narrator of the series was very well chosen indeed; he has the perfect voice for the age and style of the main protagonist, as well as a flair for envoicing (is that a word?) a wide array of other characters. I do wish he'd looked up how to pronounce Persephone for this book, though.

Another winner from Andrew Cartmel.
