Product Description

Product Description

Faithless Street is a collection of four short stories that set the scene for the novel Old Gold. Each story is set in the Black Country, in the English Midlands, and shows glimpses of peoples lives as they try to make ends meet amidst gang life, drugs deals and Gypsy camp evictions.

Please note that all four of these stores are also collected in The Goldfish Heist And Other Stories, Jay Stringer's newest anthology.

About the Author

A Black Country native, Jay Stringer was raised on pulp fiction, comic books, morgue humor, music, and films. He found inspiration for Old Gold in his UK homeland and the postindustrial region where he grew up. Currently living in Glasgow, he has been published in The Mammoth Book of Best British Crime, volumes 8 and 9, and considers his works to be pieces of “social pulp.” Alongside writing, Stringer has been a zookeeper, a bookseller, a video editor, and a call center lackey. Old Gold is his first novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars Older Gold 20 Aug 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Don't understand the two 1* reviews. If you like Old Gold then this is £0.77 well spent. Four short stories expanding on some of the characters and themes in Old Gold. The story 'Fathers Day' is excellent.
Looking forward to reading more by Jay Stringer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Must read. 20 Mar 2013

Must read for Stringer fans. Preferably before or during "Old Gold" as it has a collection of short stories that give you background and introduction to some of the characters.

These four short stories give a good insight into both the authors style and the forthcoming Old Gold which I will be buying.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not that good, but passed the time.
I didn't really enjoy this book of short stories. I'd read "Old Gold" before reading this and I don't think I'd missed anything by not reading this first.

I was curious enough to look at this book, as it said it was a prequel to OLD GOLD. I was immediately put off by the fact that the very front page displaying the title could not be... Read more
