The Village of Lost Souls
John Andrews is five years old when he watches his brother fight the fearsome Mahoneys on a patch of wasteground in Newcastle in pre-war England. It is a battle that will reverberate down the years. He is nine when World War II arrives and tears his family apart. He is seventeen when his mother flees the North-east and her despair. He accompanies her to the other end of England, to Cornwall. To the village.
It is in the village that John meets his first love, but joy is overshadowed by a rapidly-increasing series of events that has no business occurring in a rational world. As these events spiral out of control, John has to battle to save what remains of his family, his first love and his very sanity. Not to mention his life.
