Produktbeschreibung

The ideal existence for semi-retired bio-mechanical engineer, Clayton Drew, was supposed to focus on a good work-life balance, creation of a low-stress environment and participation in activities he really enjoyed. For the most part this was the case however; a simple modification to routine in the regular exercise pattern with his canine companion, was about to change all that. Passionately embracing any stimulation to satisfy his rather zealous imagination he found it difficult not to go and investigate things he deemed 'out of the ordinary'. This held true when he chanced upon what he believed to be an abandoned house. As fate would have it, he encountered a bit more than he bargained for and found himself entwined in a bitter battle of wills, and we're not talking about the 'yield and compromise' kind! Clayton will have to use every skerrick of his scientific background as well as his physical, spiritual and emotional being, to free himself metaphorically whilst liberating another literally, from the chains that bind.

Autorenporträt

Pauline continues to write after leaving her position as an educational administrator three years ago and this is now the third book she has had published. With a love of the outdoors, she busies herself kayaking, bike riding, running, swimming and surfing when she is not writing. Her creative pursuits include painting and making artistic and functional pieces from recycled materials. Pauline is currently the Vice President of the WAAFL--Women's Masters Committee--and is training with the squad representing Western Australia in the national competition. She enjoys an intimate circle of friends with whom she travels, attends theatre performances and takes time to socialise with either by dining out or at home over a meal and a few quiet drinks. She has undertaken a number of roles in live productions portraying fictional characters through immersive and interactive theatre. Pauline has incorporated into this story many aspects of her life growing up in Maniana, a low socio-economic housing commission suburb that once existed on the outskirts of Perth. She hopes that she can inspire others to move past challenging circumstances and follow their dreams, letting nothing get in the way!
