About this ebook

"You''ll no longer think of Canada as a prosaic place after reading Gil Waugh''s tale of a magical Ottawa. His story mixes the metaphysical and the mysterious, the human and the transcendent, in a fascinating and compelling blend." - Robert J. Sawyer, Best Novel Hugo and Nebula Award Winner

"Evening Song is a provocative and compelling piece of storytelling. A multi- voice, time-shifting narrative, this techno-fantasy mystery hits all the right notes! Waugh uses his deft touch to combine an intricate plot with fascinating characters while exploring such diverse issues as time and space, memory and reality, genetic engineering and more. A very satisfying and enriching read." - Joy Sallans, Educator and Writer

"Gil Waugh offers fans of redoubtable Karen Simpson another riveting mystery in the series with the eerie, futuristic Evening Song." - Chapters online editors

"Strap on your seatbelt for this wonderful tale of intrigue and murder. Waugh will pull you along on a multi-media experience which explores the limits of science, technology, the Internet, time travel and more..." - Greg Bociek, M.D. M.Sc. FRCP(C)

"Evening song is a gripping and fast paced detective thriller with a science-fiction undertone." - Doug McKercher, Publisher, Formian Press

"Travel with Karen and Steve half way around the world and experience investigation and observation techniques. This book is true to form." - John Sullivan, General Manager, Triangle Investigation Agency

Gil Waugh

Gil was born in Callander, a small town on Lake Nipissing in Northern Ontario. He is a classically trained trumpet player and electric bassist who toured as a rock musician in the 1970s. In the early 1980s after leaving full time music, he trained as a commercial pilot, worked as a licensed Private Investigator, and eventually ended up returning to university to studying Criminology, and then college to study computer programming. He is avidly interested in cognitive science and neural network applications, and for many years now, has designed, secured and maintained corporate networks. In the late 1990s, Gil wrote the Karen Simpson Sandalwood Detective agency series novels Mind Surfing and Evening Song – Òran Feasgair, which are still in print and which were originally published in 1999 went into a 2nd print edition in 2008. He has appeared on countless radio shows, was a feature guest on Global Television’s Mystery Ink and The Destiny Files, and in 2002 was a keynote speaker at the AMEC conference at the University of Mexico in Mexico City. In 1997, Gil co-founded Round the World Challenge (RWC) with Scottish-born World Cup ski champion and James Bond stuntman, Mike Nemesvary, who lives with quadriplegia after a training accident in the mid1980s. The goal of RWC was for Mike to drive his specially equipped truck around the world to raise funds and awareness of the abilities of people with disabilities. Mike and actor Christopher Reeve officially launched RWC in the spring of 2001, and in October of 2001, Mike succeeded in becoming the first quadriplegic to circumnavigate the globe. The trip won media attention all around the world, raised an estimated 1.5 million dollars, won Mike a Governor General’s meritorious service medal, and was captured in a feature-length documentary film.Gil hails from a proud mix of Highland and Lowland Scottish heritage which has strongly motivated him to embrace, support, and promote Gaelic language, music and culture. In February 2009, he rallied a core group of directors together and incorporated Comunn Gàidhlig Ottawa. In June of 2009, he formed the Ar n-Òran Gaelic choir which recorded their first CD only three months later. He continued to spearhead the Gaelic movement in Ottawa by organizing and holding the first-ever Mòd Canada in November 2009. Gil currently teaches the Gàidhlig course in the Celtic Studies program at the University of Ottawa, is a certified PDQB (Scotland) bagpipe tutor and runs the West-End Bagpiping Studio. He also is creative director/composer/recording artist and musician (Bass, Bagpipes, Irish Whistles, Vocals) with the increasingly popular Canadian Celtic hard rock band Fiùran ( https://fiuran.com/ )
