Most people dream of falling in love. But all I know of love is that it turns smart people into fools. So, I don't dream, I work. And put distance between myself and the stain of my father's betrayal. When I land a high powered job in London, it feels like I finally have everything I want. Then comes Simon, the gorgeous architect with a filthy mouth who sets my body and my mind on fire. I surrender to the pull of attraction and the promise of pleasure. But those smoldering dark eyes are also full of secrets.

Charles Mingus is a musician, a mongrel musician who plays beautiful, who plays ugly, who plays lovely, who plays masculine, who plays feminine, who plays all sounds, loud, soft, unheard sounds, sounds, sounds, sounds.... Beneath the Underdog is the memoir of the Angry Man of jazz, Charles Mingus - the genius whose adventures began at the feet of Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Charlie Parker, and led him on a tour of every bottle, bar and bed in the world.
