Hugh Lupus's Blog: Writing ''An extra knot''

The first volume of ‘Donaldson’s Company’ has been sent to the publishers!
A group of ex- servicemen hunt Nazi war criminals after the end of a very different World War Two.
Nine tales in all.
‘Genesis’. A tale of beginnings and a secret benefactor.
‘Forgiveness’. A tale of murder, pursuit and justice.
‘The lost boys’. Can needles be found in a burning haystack?
‘Nor iron bars’. A zoo owner needs help.
‘Greasepaint’. A criminal finds himself brought before an unusual court.
‘Substitute’ Does the punishment fit the crime?
‘The third horseman’. Who will win and who will lose?
‘Family’. A wedding and a sword.
‘Angel’. A football, a riot and near disaster.

My next book 'Mr Donaldson's Company' is in the final stages of preparation before being sent off to the publishers.
A gang of Glasgow criminals turn Nazi hunter and meet fingerless nuns, Polish aristocrats and haunted French policemen.
'Mr Donaldson's Company' where burglar's, pickpockets, murderer's and safe breakers can be hired to hunt the Nazi of your choice.....for a price.

Is now out!
A follow on book 'Mr Donaldson's Company' is being written now where his band of Glasgow thieves, forgers, thugs and hard men hunt Nazi war criminals for cash .....and for revenge.

Six and a half years ago I started writing 'An extra knot'
Today the last 103,000 words was sent off to my publisher.

A bitter sweet moment in the series, as I have written the last of the girl and her doll. They have appeared throughout the series interacting with others and influencing events both large and small.
I grew fond of her and hope I have given her a good ending and a fitting reward.
The tale will appear in Book 8

Is now out!
A small Allied army fights its way through France while in the Pacific the Hood's war begins to heat up.
I really enjoyed writing this and I hope my readers enjoy reading it.
