PERKY'S PROGRESS – George Perkins, a research biologist, has gone through a very stressful time in his life because of his workload and low self-esteem. Consequently his health had deteriorated leading to an early retirement. His life lacks direction and he boldly determines to embark on a course to improve his outlook and sets about attending a college for self-advancement. It elapses that the college holds dark secrets that gradually become revealed through George’s friendship with certain individuals who jointly agree that they should work together to put a stop to the worrying objectives of a sinister organisation within the personnel and fabric of the college. This results in George experiencing certain ‘adventures’ that he hasn’t planned. The things that unfold during his course at the college hold some surprising twists and turns for him. Nevertheless, he eventually becomes quite immersed in it all.
