The Unspoken - An Anthology for Cancer Relief
My Dad has cancer. More than one kind in fact. He's fighting hard, but cancer is a devious bugger. It hides, it lurks, and it pounces when you think it's down and defeated.

“You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that, oil and water were the same as wind and air to you. You just slept the big sleep, not caring about the nastiness of how you died or where you fell. Me, I was part of the nastiness now. Far more a part of it than Rusty Regan was.”

Good to meet another Thriller enthusiast.Good luck with your options. I'm waiting for the phone to ring myself.

Thanks for adding me to your friends, William. It's good to make the acquaintance of a Scottish writer - we used to live in Troon - so not far from where you originate. Ironically I'm Canadian so you've moved to my part of the world and I'm still over in yours (I'm in Northern Ireland now).Dianne Ascroft,
author, 'Hitler and Mars Bars'
