Lament for Darley Dene

After the Second World War, young Ben uncovers a bizarre tale: in the 1941 Blitz, soldiers died right where his playground is now.As events of the past slowly unfold, Ben is entangled in a series of strange, inexplicable incidents, as old secrets and long-hidden truths surface.He is about to discover his family's dark secrets, and will have to help put to rest the horror of what happened in Darley Dene. Born on the Wirral, I live in Spain for the present, but my dream is to retire (Hah, what is that? Retire?) and live on a narrowboat along one of the many waterways around the Welsh border. I work as a teacher, a profession I've been in for almost 25 years, but writing is my first love.
