Book Description
After the relief of retirement and leaving London in search of a quieter life in Wiltshire, Horatio Tiny wondered how he became involved in murder. It was 1985 and Tiny (as everyone knew him) was struggling to keep pace with a rapidly changing world. After a distinguished career as a barrister and judge, he was looking forward to settling into rural life in Oakshaw, a small village situated just north of the Marlborough Downs. He had only agreed to look into the death of a local man to comfort a friend but the more questions he asked, the more suspicious he became and the more he found himself being dragged into a world of intrigue, crime and deceit. Accompanied by his old colleague George Rawlings, their investigations quickly draw attention especially within the local Ashbury Estate, who’s growing reputation in international horseracing, is something they are keen to protect. Befriending the owners of the Estate, Tiny and Rawlings are invited to race meetings at Newbury and Royal Ascot but whilst enjoying the high life in the owner’s enclosure, tragedy strikes. Tapping into his old network of criminal contacts, Tiny’s ongoing enquiries seem to concern more than just the police, who are less than impressed by his meddling. Determined to see the investigation through to the end, Tiny soon discovers he’s out of his depth. Has he a greater number of friends than he thought or is it more the case of staying close to your enemies?

Pages : 299
Book Description
Evil had to be defeated and he had a responsibility to help. Now it was too late to do anything but spend the lives of millions of young men to defeat this new Dark Age. The mountains were witness to Sidney's determination to stand tall against the darkness. "Those mountains have always been there. They can be my memorial if I don't come back." This family story spans five generations through the Indian Wars of the Dakotas and Montana, both world wars and Vietnam. It speaks to the heartbreak war often brings when young men roll the dice to answer the call of duty. The story weaves tales of separation, unrequited love, intense romance and devotion to promises and honour. At it's heart, this is an anti war story that illustrates how family can be devastated by conflict while also speaking to the healing of spirit that passes from one generation to the next.

Book Description
The truth about the links will be deadly for Llad Fleck. No one ever told him about the psychic traits of his Viking ancestors and their extraordinary heritage―or how they died. He never heard that a powerful paranormal research institute in London considered him a lethal threat. All Llad knows for sure is that the men he plays ball against complain that he has “mad skills not suitable for a teenager.” When Llad meets an eccentric parapsychologist, she tells him she has waited decades just to teach him to expand his mind to access his unique gifts. Although her stories come across as too far-fetched, Llad tries studying her techniques. Even if he does have some kind of ancient link, Llad questions if he has the talent or patience to grasp the preternatural senses she thinks he inherited. After multiple killings shatter Llad’s life, he still doesn’t know who is behind the brutal murders or why he’s involved. He finally realizes that he is now fighting for his life against a fanatical enemy who thinks Llad controls the secrets of his Norse fore-fathers. Llad knows nothing about any of this and takes off halfway around the world searching for clues about his cryptic lineage while constantly being distracted by dreams of a mysterious girl who might be the key to his mastering the bizarre psychic gifts he will need to survive.
