Down By Law are a pop duo like no other. For a start Mickie James has a hunchback, but that doesn’t matter, he is the talented one. From their base in a disused room at the top of St Pancras Station they plan to take the music industry by storm. Only first they need gigs, a record deal and a flushable toilet. “Me and Mickie James” is a novel of amazing energy and humour about love, fate and the importance of pop music in all our lives.
