Or, for people who love Greek myths. In this retelling of the Oedipus legend as a contemporary thriller, Charles has one driving obsession: he loves his ex-wife dearly. And on the day Kaz left him for famous and powerful Alex King, he swore deadly vengeance.

He pursues Alex from London to Venice to a remote monastery in Greece but when he comes face to face with Alex, Charles is stunned by the devastating impact Blind Chance has had on his old enemy.

Fiction

To any coach just setting up in business: this book is your quiet companion. Keep it next to your laptop as you coach writers to write their books. It is your emotional companion in the journey of book coaching and editing.

There are letters on setting up systems, on interacting with writers, and on practicing your coaching skills. On marketing. On the impact of feeling let down and of simply feeling down. On the moments of joy, or wry amusement, or all-out hilarity.
