After 27 years working with computers in a variety of industries: Oil exploration, pharma, hospitals, manufacturing, shipping etc., I retired early and began to write. I've been writing full time since 2007, and have completed hundreds of short stories and self-published 7 novels.
The Black Orchestra, a WW2 spy story set in Berlin. The Wings of the Eagle (Black Orchestra #2) A Postcard from Hamburg (Black Orchestra #3) The Gingerbread Spy (Black Orchestra #4)
The Serpent's Egg (Red Orchestra WW2 spy thriller)
Irish detective thrillers: Houdini's Handcuffs (Ben Jordan #1) Find Emily (Ben Jordan #2)
My latest publications are 2 short novellas featuring Kriminalkommissar Saxon in pre-war Munich. Zugzwang and Queen Sacrifice and 2 short SF stories called Murder by Android and Rogue Android.
This short story is brief and to the point. I opened it and had finished reading it before I realized what was happening. It gets you involved that fast. Enjoy !!
