Ronnie even tried himself at Elvis pool table, prompting Laila to tweet: The Rocket @ronnieo147 having a go on Elvis Presley's Skip to content Ronnie O'Sullivan.
Frankie James is a young man with a lot on his shoulders. His mother disappeared when he was sixteen; his father's in jail for armed robbery; and he owes rent on his Soho snooker club to one of London's toughest gangsters. Things, you'd think, can only get better.
Actually, they're about to get a whole lot worse. He always swore to his mum he'd keep his younger, wilder brot Frankie James is a young man with a lot on his shoulders. His mother disappeared when he was sixteen; his father's in jail for armed robbery; and he owes rent on his Soho snooker club to one of London's toughest gangsters.
Things, you'd think, can only get better. Actually, they're about to get a whole lot worse. He always swore to his mum he'd keep his younger, wilder brother out of trouble, but when Jack turns up at the club, covered in someone else's blood, and with the cops hard on his heels, Frankie has no choice but to enter the sordid world of bent coppers, ruthless mobsters and twisted killers he's tried all his life to avoid. But in the dog-eat-dog underworld of 1990s Soho - as a vicious gang war rages between London's two foremost crime families - will Frankie be tough enough, and smart enough to come out on top? 'This book was interesting. Very interesting.
The worst type of interesting' could well be a line from Ronnie O'Sullivan's debut novel. To say it's terrible, which it is, is somehow to do it a disservice. Yes, the plot has more holes than that cardigan your gran knitted you in 1984. Yes the dialogue is clunky and makes you think that everyone in London talks like they're in an early Guy Ritchie film. Yes every character is dubious in someway or other. Somehow it works.

Somehow it works. It's like that bloke in the pub who is always at the bar decides to spin the longest most ludicrous yarn going. You know it's probably rubbish, well, you know it's absolute rubbish. But you can't help being pulled in because it's such good fun and you want to see where he slips up. My dog ate my copy of this shortly after I finished it. I should probably have been happy but for some reason I thought I might want to dip in for more. Framed is Ronnie's first novel, his previous two books being autobiographies.
Taking many elements from Ronnie's own life, it is the story of Frankie James, a young lad in 1990s Soho, who dodges gangsters and underworld crime to run a snooker club in the absence of his father (in prison for armed robbery) and his mother (who ran off years before). But when his younger brother, Jack, is accused of a vicious gang-related murder, Frankie must get his hands dirty to prove his brother's innocence.

* I genuinely had high hopes for this book. Ronnie's own life story is fascinating, and as a template for a character, Ronnie himself is a great place to start. But this book really didn't exploit all this subject matter as I'd hoped. * The odd reference to Poland Street and britpop can't cover the fact that this book doesn't bring 1990s Soho to life, which is a shame. And though there are gangsters, there are way too many and they lack individuality. * But the biggest disappointment is Frankie James. I'd hoped that this character, like Ronnie, would be complex - all rock and roll swagger, but with self esteem issues, or even depression.
Instead Frankie James is, bizarrely, more like a Jack Reacher person. For no believable reason, this young man suddenly develops the ability to solve complex crimes, read crime scenes, beat up gangsters, breaking and entering without leaving any clue. Xpfildrvr1224 320 zip. It's not believable. And robs us of an interesting character. And the result is a boring read as Frankie propels himself deeper into Soho's underworld without difficulty or conflict. * So why three stars?
