See A Side of Bridlington
The Bridlington Library Writers' Group was formed in 2011 and after nearly two years of honing their craft, a number of the writers decided to put together a collection of their work. This could be of any genre and subject, with the single proviso that it was linked to Bridlington in some way. The book features both published and unpublished authors and I am sure you will find the pieces submitted for this anthology interesting, informative and written to a very high standard.
The Feisty Professor
Local author Trev Haymer has created a feisty investigator. The Professor is a red-haired young lady in her mid-twenties. She is Professor of Archaeology and Forensics at a university who regularly assists the local, cash-strapped police force with mainly cold cases. The fashionable Professor, known as Prof, wears designer clothes she has bid for on the internet. Prof also has a 70-year-old sidekick, Stanley, who is a metal-detecting enthusiast. Set in Bretelton, a seaside resort on the east coast of Yorkshire, the book follows Prof, aided by Stanley, in numerous local investigations. Also, three of the cases lead Prof to Spain, West Yorkshire and Tyneside locations. All these cases are spiked with danger, but also humour.
Chosen To Survive
Set in the near future this novel is a mixture of futuristic vision and science fiction. The theme is: The Human Race is dying - save the young. An untreatable virus, known as The Superbug, is rapidly decimating the world's population. Something has to be done. So five virus-proof isolation towers are built offshore in various locations across the planet in an effort to ensure the survival of mankind. Placed in these isolation towers from birth are children, presently aged twelve years. But these 'special children', known as the Chosen Ones, have been subjected to intense education and are now at university level. In one week's time they will be leaving Earth for a distant planet, aiming to create a new world to ensure the future of the Human Race. But immense difficulties lay ahead as these plans are threatened by rebels from the mainland who are also determined to gain passage to the new planet. What will these Chosen Ones find on the new planet? Will it be completely uninhabited?
Full Fathom Five
Full Fathom Five tells the story of Christopher (Kit) Brown and his involvement in the Great Gale of 1871, his part in the heroic rescue of the crew of the Victoria, and the lifeboat disaster of March 1898 which led to his death. The story also relates how Kit tries to persuade his son Fred to take responsibility, and reflects on some aspects of life in the fishing community of Bridlington during the Victorian era. Real people are featured in this story, and the events concerning the lifeboats are historical events, but some of the words and actions of the characters are fiction.
