The Ambulist
My debut novel, a literary thriller called The Ambulist, has just been released by Beat&track - my own publishing enterprise. It's a limited edition, and if readers buy it from my own website , they get a signed and numbered copy; it's also out on Kindle on Amazon.
The Ambulist is the man who walks forever.
Through the plains and vales of Northumberland,
across fell and river, mountain and
moorland, the nomad’s titanic figure is pursued
by people determined to discover his past. He
might be an innocent traveller, a terrorist or the
Second Coming of Christ; who can say?
John Queedy is the painfully self- conscious,
damaged young man who will become his
protégé. M. is the time-worn proprietor of a failing
regional newspaper who needs a story, a big
story, to save his career.
The Arnesens inhabit a Borders tower-house:
indulgent, overflowing with love, music and art,
they are witnesses to the First Miracle.
Gaunt is a cynical hack, an exposer of fraud, and
weak of virtue.
Albie Rooi is the hunter.
