My big work - due September - but running late!
It becomes topical in October 2012, the 60th anniversary of England’s worst railway disaster.

A period murder mystery set on the railway in post-war England. Then, the railway was far more dangerous than it is today: handy if you’re a serial killer!

So far, this novel has a one-hundred-thousand word plot which I began writing nearly three years ago. It has been professionally critiqued - when it was sixty-thousand words - in August 2010 by an editor from The Writers’ Workshop, a wonderful on-line resource for all writers. Since then, its been given a much stronger plot and plenty of murders.

The technical guff is kept to a minimum, and although not aimed at railway buffs, I hope many will read it.

Here’s what the cover may look like ……

The Duchess of Hamilton.

Isn't she a beauty?

A classy lady, with great pulling power, streamlined for extra speed, a tender behind, and such a fine pair of shinny buffers!

Why not visit her in The National Railway Museum, York?

Will she star in my murder mystery? Or might it be The Flying Scotsman or King George V?
