    About this ebook

    After finishing my last novel, my creative side has been bombarded with a cacophony of new characters and ideas. I felt compelled to write them into a random series of short stories. This is my first offering; more to come! Hope you enjoy them.

    Damien L. Malcolm

    I live in a small town in regional Queensland, Australia with my wife and four young children. I run a local Handyman business and any spare time I get is spent writing. At the impressionable age of 15 the Winchester series began for me as a private story idea based on the model of TV shows and books already famous in the sci-fi genre, but as it evolved and expanded, I found the idea and resulting story outgrew the confines of other formats. Eventually I found Smashwords, and never looked back. Since self-publishing Winchester: Saviour, I have changed genre a little, creating a more contemporary mystery novel, set in rural Australia. I simply love writing, but I get even more enjoyment out of knowing people are reading my work. Thank you.

      I magine a sticky, early August morning, around three o’clock. It is dark, the moon blocked by clouds, no streetlights, a siren in the distance, medics running to a heart attack. Imagine a man out on a bike or walking a sick dog, or maybe a woman who

      What Are You Really Crying About?

      — “I love to cry — as long as it’s not about my life.” It was a simple statement, a line I’ve said a thousand times before. But when your dad is a shrink — like mine — you never know where a conversation might take you.  A few months ago I was visiti
