CHEAT. By Bill Walsh.
1981 1st edition. Small 8vo (125 x 192mm). Pp192. Not illustrated. Black boards, spine titled in silver-gilt.
"Crack northern angler Mal Williams is under attack. For some reason, attempts are being made to ruin his reputation. Virulent articles in the angling press, and attempts to frame him as a cheat, eventually achieve their objective - Mal's business and his reputation are in tatters. Then he fights back. Many of the characters we first met in Live Bait are featured in this story with telling effect. This is more than just another thriller - some fine character studies; a dash of humour; a touch of romance; a hero that ordinary people can identify with; and a baffling plot, make it different. If you like thrillers you should read this; if you are an angler who likes thrillers - it's a must".
