Slow Poison has been on the Authonomy charts for a while now and, while Bloodstones reached the editor's desk over a year ago, Slow Poison has taken its time and is now within reach of that hallowed spot at the top.
Slow Poison has undergone some radical changes: I've taken the story through a radical re-write and there is now a little twist in the ending of the tale...
The story has a dark and convoluted plot. I've been told there are touches of Larsson and other Scandinavians about my writing. It does have a certain Continental style.
The story in a nutshell: Amsterdam 1987. A quiet assassin waits for the perfect moment. Thirty years on, that moment has arrived.
The story in several nutshells:
Amsterdam 1987.The brutal slaying of a British tourist and the subsequent arrest and imprisonment of a young football supporter sparks off an orgy of violence. But the killing is no random act. The boy is innocent.
Back in England, the real killer begins the final chapter of an obsessive vendetta, culminating in a bloody siege high in the snowbound Cotswolds.
I may publish soon unless an agent or publisher takes me on board.
Either way, with the book re-written, I'm keen to let the reader loose on the story. Slow Poison Book Link
Red House is screaming to be unleashed.
