Overview

Wotcha - a contraction of the 15th century English greeting what chere be with you? Watcher n - a person who watches or observes somebody or something. A voyeur. Say WOTCHA! to Bart Raines, who s condemned forever to be a watcher after a childhood prank left his eyelid glued to his beloved telescope. Stuck with one eye that can t not see, he s turned voyeurism into a lucrative blackmail industry. Say WOTCHA! to former rock star, avid coke fiend, Richard Winston Smith who s watched by millions - among them erstwhile school friend Bart, who s orchestrating revenge for Winston s teenage betrayal through the sinister global surveillance network he calls the Daisy Chain. Say WOTCHA! to high class whore Daisy Chains (ne Raines) and her teenage son Joe, who s abducted along with his girlfriend by a sinister Christian cult, which leaves the kids to die, hogtied and helpless in a derelict drainage tunnel slowly filling with sewage. Watched by the world s media, Winston, Daisy and Bart reunite to use fame and the Daisy Chain to save two teenage lives - and their own souls - from the filth that s about to drown them. Wotcha! is a comic spit in the eye of born again zealots with a wink and a twinkle to the rest of us - but it s also deadly serious. Mining a rich seam of coal-black humour and sex, drugs and rock and roll, it starts on a bitter-sweet nostalgia trip and builds up to the pace of a thriller. CONTROVERSIAL STUFF? Its themes and explicit language make this a candidate for one of those parental advisory stickers they put on CDs these days. Does that make WOTCHA! a book that people aged under sixteen shouldn t read? In the author s opinion - absolutely not. If rude words and references to sex, drugs and rock and roll upset you per se, this book s not for you. But if you believe, as I do, that a sense of humour is what separates naughty from evil, I think you might enjoy this story, laugh at the funny bits, think about the serious bits and read the redemption between the lines.
