Memoirs Of A Dance Hall Romeo Mystery Paperback Book by Jack Higgins from 1990
He looked like Bogart with a cigarette in his mouth-or so he fancied His name was Oliver Shaw
and the year was 1949, Manningham, England.
Fresh out of the army, 20-year-old Oliver was eager to
make his mark on the world—to sell his first novel and leave his teaching post at a dangerous slum school.
But first there was the mysterious matter of women, and making up for lost time.
From ginger-haired Ava to laughing, generously-endowed Imogene, from provocative Gloria to insatiable, plain-faced Lucy, Oliver was discovering that he had more talent than he'd ever imagined.
Jack Higgins, author of some of the greatest blockbuster thrillers ever written, brings us a wonderful, lusty new novel that captures the spirit of a bygone era, and the heart and soul of a young man in love with life's infinite possibilities.
