Short one tonight because it's Monday and I'm tired because I was up until 3AM watching House of Cards on Netflix.
Richard Briers has died! Bloody shame because he was just really, really good at what he did. Serious stuff, the odd villain and of course The Good Life. Hopefully there will be plenty of his work screened in tribute.
In other news Liverpool were awesome yesterday which helped start the week right. And I've submitted an extract of The Trust to the Ampersand Agency. I'll keep you informed but we all know how it will end up.
Finally, I've tweaked the blurb for the new book. Shorter, tighter, better I think. Check it out:
"When a number of bodies are unearthed on the grounds of Moorcastle asylum in the historic city of Lancaster, ambitious young detective Tom Ashton quickly realises there is a link to the hastily arranged disposal of anthrax infected bodies from experiments conducted in 1942 by the Ministry of Defence on the west coast of Scotland.
Horrendous and unprecedented as this discovery is, this
is not the heart of the book’s mystery. It quickly becomes apparent that far
darker secrets lie buried on the site of the old asylum. Evidence is gathered
pointing to abuse of patients within the asylum while Rhiannon Saxby, an
employee of the Trust, has reason to believe a number of her colleagues are
involved in a secret society which is playing God with the lives of patients.
Her situation is made all the more difficult as her own mother was a patient at
Moorcastle. Meanwhile Tom must also contend with the discovery of a body in the
river and the very real possibility that a serial killer may be at work in the
town. As the investigation progresses and the pressure increases Tom is certain
of just one thing. The Trust is at the centre of it all."
That's all for tonight gang. Have a good night.
