DOMINIC 'DOM' NOLAN chats with Victoria Selman about his new novel VINE STREET, 1930S Soho, obsession, history versus the past and believing in your work.

VINE STREET: SOHO, 1935. SERGEANT LEON GEATS' PATCH.
A snarling, skull-cracking misanthrope, Geats marshals the grimy rabble according to his own elastic moral code.
The narrow alleys are brimming with jazz bars, bookies, blackshirts, ponces and tarts so when a body is found above the Windmill Club, detectives are content to dismiss the case as just another young woman who topped herself early.
But Geats - a good man prepared to be a bad one if it keeps the worst of them at bay - knows the dark seams of the city.
Working with his former partner, mercenary Flying Squad sergeant Mark Cassar, Geats obsessively dedicates himself to finding a warped killer - a decision that will reverberate for a lifetime and transform both men in ways they could never expect.

VINE STREET is Dominic Nolan's third novel, following his widely acclaimed books PAST LIFE and AFTER DARK
