I Saw Love

By Tim Holmes

A man alone. A man so broken that if you were to come too close you would be cut by the jagged edges of his shattered soul. This was a man who had lived a life of love, family, and great wealth. But now he stands alone in the darkness. A dark night filled with unease and foreboding. All that he once had in his life, all of the good, the blessings, even the smallest things that once brought him joy, those things are gone. The only possession he now holds in his hand is a gun. A shotgun. It is the answer to his angst. The pain of addiction will end. Everything will end. He lifts the gun to his face. The stillness of the night ignites with the deafening sound of lost hope.

Tim Holmes

“Although I came to it late in life, writing was always in the blood,” he once told a friend, “and I now lead two lives, those of my fantasy characters, and that of the real me. And often I confuse the two.”Tim Holmes was born in London, brought up in Geneva, Switzerland and educated in England. He eventually embarked on a thirty-five year career in the international wine industry, having learned his craft in Bordeaux and Burgundy as a ‘stagiare’ winemaker during university vacations.After a stint in the Ministries of Agriculturs of those Eastern European nations assimilating their wine regimes with those of the EU Common Agricultural policy in the early 90s, and after a lifetime of travel, tasting and trading wines around the world for a company he founded with two Swiss friends in Zürich, Tim now lives in France and England where he dedicates his time to writing novels and short stories.
