A Pirating We Will Go!

Hi Guys,


 

Just to let you know - The Pirate's Son is now up and out there. It's another mystery / detective, but this time set in New Zealand - Hamilton, Britain and the Canaries. (Also on the Seven Seas!) And it asks that most fundamental of questions - what happened when a banker goes nuts and takes up piracy?!

Anyway, I'm pleased with the book and pleased that it's finally done. And yes, once more the book cover comes from Deep Dream. So for those of you curious about these things, here's the blurb:


A pirating we will go!

It wasn't easy being an architect! That was what Cliff was discovering. Because one day he might be sitting at his desk, designing a barn, and the next he could be in jail because his bastard of a father – who wasn't even his father – had collapsed his bank and run off with the money. And while he did that Cliff would be left to answer for his crimes!

It was that old pirate blood showing through!

Then again, it wasn't so easy being a police detective either as DI Richards was discovering. Not when her suspects were crazy, the mastermind behind the fraud was missing, and the crimes made no sense. But she had hope. It would all come together – maybe. And hopefully her boss wouldn't yell at her!

But then when her chief suspect started cruising the seven seas, plundering in a luxury yacht turned pirate ship, she knew that the chances of that were slim to none!

It was time to batten down the hatches and prepare for a storm as a geriatric madman in a pirate ship declared war on the world!


Anyway, hope you guys enjoy the book, and I'll enjoy a nice long nap on the couch!

Cheers, Greg.
