"There are times when we’re all autumn people.” This is a book I have lived with for most of my reading life. I first came across it in a small town library at home in the West of Scotland. I think I was about 13, the same age as the boys, and it imme ...more |

No more an angel but still a favourite. I've been waiting for this for decades, the posthumously published sequel to Falling Angel. I read the book even before seeing the seminal Angel Heart movie, but both of them have, over time, become interwoven a ...more |

“People should learn to live in the now. They spend all their time thinking about past glories and worrying about the future. Meanwhile all the moments of spontaneity and beauty they’ll ever have in their lives are flitting from future into past without being noticed. That’s why there are so many grumpy assholes in the world”

“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.”

Hi & thank you for being a friend on Good Reads!
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'
Hello, Will! Nice to see you here. :) Thanks for the add.Louise
