Blue Marble: Love Bears All Things

Written by Ray White

Narrated by Ray White and Liz Porter

In Blue Marble you are a feisty and fetching woman in the richest decade of American history. Every man in Marble, Colorado exhales vocally at your provocative 1910 fashions. And it doesn’t hurt that there are fifty strapping men for every female in this booming quarry camp in the rarified mountains of Colorado. Or... perhaps... you’re the man who practically invented modern marble extraction. Every day you’re pulling out a hundred tons of the finest statuary marble the world has ever seen. The Lincoln Memorial and Tomb of the Unknown Soldier are your finest achievements. Or... maybe... you are just a broken widower looking for the most remote place on earth to hide. You could lose the next decade to misery and grinding depression without notice. It would be just fine if you never spoke to another human being, ever. Until your eyes landed on her. Blue Marble promises the most satisfying love story you’ve read in a while. When you’re finished, you’ll ask for the prequels, Swallow the Dog and If Only For a Season.

Ray White

The author is a retired highly qualified engineer who has worked for a number of international consultants, specialising in the design and construction of major tunnelling and infrastructure projects. During his career, he has also been interested in the development of oil and gas drilling technology, which is one of the main reasons for writing this book. Additionally, Ray has a passion for mining archaeology, which again is expressed in this novel. Having lived in Northern Cyprus with his late wife, Madeleine, he observed a structure to the rear of their property, which the locals called Vounos and were adamant that it was an ancient burial site. To Ray, it was more than that and was almost certainly a spoil heap from the Bronze Age mine workings. In fact, you could see where the old miners had excavated into the side of the Kyrenia Mountain Range at the rear of Vounos. That’s how this book was conceived and developed.
