The Michaelmas Daisy



The Michaelmas Daisy
By Paul Marriner
Genre:-Contemporary
Blurb:-The Michaelmas Daisy: a contemporary story of loneliness, loyalty, love, finding new friends, and hope.

 Beverley may be dead, but that doesn’t make it any easier to let go. She watches over her husband and daughter, sharing their pain, laughter, fears and dreams. As she watches, memories of her own life and love for her husband bring comfort and tears in equal measure.

 Her daughter, Philippa (58, divorced), looks after her ailing father. She does so willingly, but caring for him 24/7 takes great patience and compassion, and such devotion is isolating.

 Into their home comes Kaska (39). She provides respite care, brings kindness and energy, and helps Philippa realise it’s ok to still want some life of her own.

 As her father’s condition worsens, Philippa’s dedication is tested to the full and difficult choices are necessary.

 The Michaelmas Daisy: written in honour of those in need of care, and those who care for them.

Zero Ri$k



 Zero Ri$k
BySimon Hayes
Genre:-Thriller
Publisher:-The Rubriqs Press
Blurb:-23 December 2024… Rob Tanner should have been enjoying a rare day off from his life-consuming work as Chief Operating Officer at one of the country's largest banks. But a panicked phone call from a senior colleague forces him to put his Christmas plans on ice: more than a thousand of the bank's accounts have seen their balances increased by a factor of ten. Exactly ten. Through the inexplicably simple addition of an extra zero. And when the inflated balances prove to be neither early Christmas gifts, nor a botched computer system upgrade, but the most sophisticated cyber attack in history, Tanner finds himself in the eye of a "Black Swan' storm no one predicted, but anyone could have anticipated. Tanner enlists the help of brilliant American cyber security expert Ashley Markham, but the attacks only worsen: bank balances rise remorselessly and spread to all the nation's banks. The only clues to the hacker's intentions are cryptic daily emails, centred on Hieronymus Bosch's medieval representation of the seven deadly sins―and packed with colourful artistic and cultural references―taunting Tanner and the newly incumbent Prime Minister, James Allen. With financial markets―and the very world as he knows it―on the brink of collapse, Tanner races against the clock to decode not just the bizarre emails but their deeper meaning, and the implications for who he can really trust. All the while, his former boss “The Toad” is seeking revenge... and answers of his own. This enthralling, multi-layered debut follows the story of a disillusioned banker facing unthinkable financial Armageddon, where money has no value, stock and bond prices are meaningless, and the economy is destroyed. Can Tanner unravel the mystery of the hacker's obsession with Bosch, sin and retribution before modern society returns to the dark ages?

Book description:

  • A multi-layered, race against time, cyber-crime thriller with a simple, original, "Black Swan' premise that will keep you awake at night turning the pages… and questioning your dependence on modern technology.

  • An intriguing cyber-take on the locked room mystery; a whydunnit as well as a whodunnit, centred on the modern seven deadly sins.

  • Full of cryptic artistic and cultural references (or are they clues?).

  • A thought-provoking morality tale set in London at Christmas (via Europe, the US and Africa).

  • With short, sharp chapters and crisp dialogue from an ensemble cast… where the criminal may be the one person telling the truth.

  • And, at its heart, an everyday tale of love, loss and redemption.

My Review:-It's up to fifteen-year-old Efrain to look after his two younger brothers, since their mother was wrongly arrested and sent to prison for theft. But Efrain has to try and do what he can to help their mother. They live on the hillside in Monterrey, Mexico. Still going to school Efrain must work as much as he can for money, to buy food for them. Will Efrain turn to what is on offer from the local gangs or not? The storyline shows how things are different for people with money to those with nothing. Looking at how we live, to some we have a lot, but then we look at how different we are to people with a lot more than us. There is always people out there willing to help, but some expect something more in return.

Blurb:-Respected and successful barrister Bernadette Wiseman is dead, hanged in the hall of her home. With no sign of foul play and no note, the question raised is why?

And more importantly, to honour Bernie's own dedication to justice, can they prove it?

 But who is he up against?

My Review:-This is Book Three in 'JJ Jenson' series. I've had the pleasure of reading and review 'An Ill Wind' and 'To Kill To Birds'. Barrister Bernadette Wiseman is found hung in the hall of her home. The police think it's a suicide, but her partner Annie thinks there is something not right about it and turns to the one person she knows will find out the truth, JJ Jenson and Davies his sidekick. It's not long before JJ finds things about Bernadette and not everyone liked her. The deeper JJ and Davie dig into Bernadette's past the more dangerous things become. But who has Bernadette upset enough for her to be killed and also why? Another great storyline with the characters we love. Plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing.
