Beschreibung

When Millicent Pemberton's acting career comes to a disastrous end, she seduces a wealthy Scottish Duke and moves into his impressive castle. Pregnant with Justin she raids the Duke's safe and disappears with a fortune in banknotes. 22 years later, a fiercely dominating mother, Millicent and her American lover move to the USA selling her family home, leaving him to be introduced into an alien world. A Pandora's box of events challenges his sanity. He'd been arrested and jailed briefly for a trumped-up charge of rape. Mentally, physically and sexually abused by a collection of crazy women (including a randy teacher and her class of equally randy 16-year-old schoolgirls). Locating his mother in the USA, Justin accompanying her to a bank is taken hostage by three armed gorillas during a raid. He is whisked away into the wilds to be harassed by a gang of women thieves. The Duke, recognising Millicent from a TV newsflash and realising Justin must be his son, races to rescue him with a bunch of mercenaries. Justin's story has so many unpredictable events you are forced to turn over the page to learn what happens to our guy next.

Autor

Michael was born in 1939 and educated at Cathays High School. His working life was involved in civil engineering construction contracts of all types. Michael's greatest engineering challenge came as early as 1963 to overcome the problems on a section of the most formidable contract his company had. The Blackrock Section of the A465 Heads of the Valleys Road was an engineering nightmare. As the section engineer, he was responsible for construction of the carriageway... blasting a large quantity of rock from the narrow gorge, and overcoming a major geological failure. It was a truly memorable opening day when Michael witnessed traffic flowing unhindered between Abergavenny and Brynmawr. His first novel, From Dingle With Love. was inspired during three decades working for an Irish Civil engineering company. The company was mainly manned by wonderful characters from Co. Cork, Sligo, Galway, Tipperary, Kerry, Limerick, etc. On many occasions, Michael told his wife of everyday occurrences explaining how ingenious they were to ease his problems. Carol made notes of many occasions and persuaded him to write a novel when he retired.
