Nine Lives

Nine Lives is my first collection of short stories, written over the course of a decade. Some are tragedies, but there are also satisfying resolutions, moments of humour and high drama. Characters include an ex-RAF crewman, haunted by his memories of the Dresden fire bombing, a conscientious objector forced onto the parade ground, a cross-dresser meeting his estranged father, a moral dilemma for Hans Asperger and a young Norman Wisdom struggling against social adversity. For the reader who enjoys variety as well as surprises, Nine Lives will leave you purring.
