Scumbag Millionaire

By: Paul Richard Scott

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In one darkly disturbing and satirical “chavs to riches” volume at last, this gritty urban drama details the rise of the raunchy Robinson clan from being a splintered and dysfunctional family living in the leafy green suburbs of the Wybourn council estate in Sheffield, to living the high life of luxury on a small Greek island. Freddie is their bigoted, misogynistic patriarch - twice married, twice divorced, on unemployment and incapacity benefits for almost thirty years and no stranger to the prison system. Freddie is enlisted by former Glasgow gangster, Jimmy Bonner, into a rather unusual get rich quick scheme that ultimately backfires, leaving him on the run from Eastern European racketeers. Full of twists, turns, shocks and surprises, with some hefty lashings of dark humour heaped on top, this novel proves exactly how grim it is up North. Not for the faint-hearted, this is the chav’s version of “Four Weddings and a Funeral”
