History's Unwritten Paths: Introducing The Ghost of Downing Street
Some doors should never be opened
Each HistoryInBites article circles the same question: what if the catastrophes of history were not mistakes at all?
My new novel (!) takes a related but slightly different angle: what if the past is not as set in stone as it seems?
The Ghost of Downing Street is a literary thriller. Garrick Townsend, a Downing Street protection officer, thought he understood the stories we are told about history, power, and the world. Then, a chance encounter changes everything. There are rumours of ghosts — but the ghosts are not what anyone expected. They are echoes of history, waiting for someone to listen.
The same drive that fuels HistoryInBites — the refusal to take official stories at face value, the need to peel off the layers and find the deeper truth — also drives the novel. Restrained, atmospheric, in le Carré territory.
NetGalley offers free advance copies to readers who leave honest reviews. The Ghost of Downing Street is available there now - how about it?
