Fine Line (Paperback or Softback)

Every now and then predictable patterns in life are broken and time as we know it can change and alter its nature.

Fine Line is a mystical love story between Claire and Geoffrey that spans two hundred and twelve years against a background of the rise and fall of the British Empire, the decline of the traditional Christian Church and the contemporary unrest in the Middle East.

Geoffrey Blake struggles with male prejudices and instincts. His innate empathy towards women, overcompensation to his father's bigotry, and the radical perceptions of his beautiful, druid-influenced wife, push him to his limit.

Claire's innocent yet persistent seeking of what she deems fair leaves its mark over many generations.

I am a family man. I met my life mentor when I was twenty-three. That's when the trouble started.

My writing career commenced at seven years of age. I was presented a first prize, on television, for a short story I wrote.I believe that everyone can achieve anything they set their mind to, but in saying that, I never underestimate how tough life can be.I feel nobody, including myself, can be completely original for we are a product of the positives, the negatives and the discoveries that have gone before us.Through the higher aspects of myself, I trust the past and the future and firmly believe that there is a reason for everything that happens.
