Jerry has a traumatic past that leaves him subject to psychotic hallucinations & depressive episodes. When he stands accused of stealing a priceless Van Gogh painting, he goes underground, where he develops an unwilling relationship with a woman who believes that the voices she hears are from God. Involuntarily entangled in the illicit world of sex-trafficking amongst the Hollywood elite, & on a mission to find redemption for a haunting series of events from the past, Jerry is thrust into a genuinely shocking & outrageously funny quest to uncover the truth & atone for historical sins. A complex, page-turning psychological thriller, riddled with twists & turns, Epiphany Jones is also a superb dark comedy with a powerful emotional core. You`ll laugh when you know you shouldn`t, be moved when you least expect it &, most importantly, never look at Hollywood, celebrity or sex in the same way again. This is an extraordinary debut from a fresh, exceptional new talent. ...

Epitaph For The Ash: In Search Of Recovery And Renewal

Inspired by her uncle, Lisa Samson has communed with trees since her childhood. Tragically, a disease from mainland Europe now poses a very serious threat to the ash tree`s survival. Epitaph for the Ash explores how barren our landscape could become without the ash`s familiar branches protruding from limestone scars and chalky cliff faces. The trees` grave prognosis takes on a personal resonance when, in the course of writing this book, Lisa is diagnosed with a brain tumour. While she receives treatment, and learns to walk and talk again, Lisa finds solace once more in the natural world. She continues to research her beloved forests, which once sheltered a wealth of flora and fauna, seeking out the possibilities that modern science might provide for their survival. Taking us from
the lowlands of Norfolk to northernmost reaches of the British Isles, Lisa`s book is a celebration of the deep cultural and historical significance of the ash. As Lisa contemplates her own mortality, and the trees` likely fate emerges, Epitaph for the Ash offers up a rallying cry to treasure these remarkable woodlands while we still can, before it is too late.
