edit data

Bob Able has published popular memoirs about his life as a 'part-time expat' in Spain and the UK. He has recently added crime fiction to his bookshelf in the form of his new novel 'The Menace Of Blood'. Bob's books do not contain graphic descriptions of sex or violence, that is not his style but the tension, drama and excitement he builds into his fictional writing is still underpinned by his gentle humorous writing style. According to one reviewer his writing 'is captivating and envelopes you in whatever he is writing about.'
