    Can a Mermaid Kill?

    About this ebook

    So unmoving was the girl sitting on the wet rocks that, at first, she seemed a permanent feature of the rugged seascape. She was wearing an expensive evening dress and high-heel slippers. She seemed to be in a deep trance, her gaze fixed on the sea, motionless except for the tossing of her delicate blond hair in the morning breeze. And as his steps brought him closer, he thought he had never seen anything so strange, so lovely, so vulnerable ... until he caught sight of the gun in her hand!

      Oct 6, 2023

      She’s the most beautiful woman in the town where I live, the true image of a Greek goddess. Black, black eyes that are huge and slightly slanted, veiled and mysterious like those of a cat, and with a neck and bosom that could launch a thousand ships.

      The busted ZIPPER

      Aug 27, 2020

      It was the second helping of chocolate mousse at lunch that had done it, Stuart decided, as he felt the two sides of his zip begin to part company. The sensation was decidedly unpleasant – a sad sliding down over which he had no control. What if he s

      AS soon as the starter pistol banged, I threw the fishing kit into the car and went to see ‘someone who isn’t a direct member of your household’. Partly it was to chuck a fly, partly to savour the sheer joy of escaping the family. Much as one loves o
