|  | | Full Story Inside Full Story Inside is a fast paced thriller that feeds on the public's fascination for conspiracy theories and the power of the media in perpetrating them, knowing that an awful lot people believe everything they read.
Do You Believe What You Read? Local journalist Alex Hart seizes on the chance to report on an event beyond the usual mundane regional offerings of village fetes and community life: a man's dead body has been found floating in the river. The key to his death is contained within a file on a secreted computer disk. Hart becomes a fugitive and teams up with national journalist Jane Coker as they try to decipher the contents of the disk. What they find is a trail that leads to Mary Queen Of Scots and the realisation that sinister media magnate Arturo Tabb and his best selling newspaper's next wo | |  | | It's Cold Outside I've always loved Christmas and especially Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol'. Combine this with my love of Rugby and 2003 (the World Cup) was the perfect backdrop to the lead up to a great Christmas and the chance to write about a diverse set of characters and the chance to implant an event that changes all their lives. I loved putting in the surreal touch!!
Christmas 2003 is approaching fast but festive thoughts are at least put on hold with the distraction of the Rugby World Cup as England is gripped by sporting fever. As the cheers of the victory homecoming parade begin to diminish, for one group of Brits there is the chance to rekindle their seasonal spirit when given the chance to visit a modern Christmas idyll. The prestigious Snow Lodge in Lapland plays host to a very diverse party - two amateur radio DJ's, a fading rock star and his faithful hippy roadie, an easy going marketing manager and his fiery senior executive girlfriend plus a s | |  | | You Are Here 'Your first Novel is always said to be a labour of love and that is very true of You Are Here. I began it as a tribute to all those Lad's holidays I went on before getting married in my Thirties. It is a fact that the European beach resorts are not just full of rampant teenagers on the pull as mingled in are a number of small groups of Thirtysomething and even Fortysomething guys trying to prove they have still got it before settling for the TV and slippers lifestyle. In the end You Are Here became a novel of many themes but the main focus was on taking stock on where life could take you under the influence of work, love and modern living but the most significant influence is always from our past.
'You Are Here' explores the lives of Gavin, Dave, Phil and Tony - four thirtysomethings who feel they might be over the hill and may never meet the women of their dreams. They are about to embark on yet another holiday - religiously known as 'The Campaign'. They all have only one thing in mind: girls, and lots of them. Slightly risque with plenty of humour and fun, encompassing many incidents with the opposite sex, which most males, and some females, no doubt, could relate to! Most definitely a funny and entertaining read with a nice little twist at the end. |
