Thanks for tracking me down to my web site. Here you'll find information about my latest book –THE UNQUIET HEART - as well as some personal thoughts on writing: see the Storyteller and Heroes. And of course if you want to contact me with feedback - good or bad - please fire your comments or questions to gordonferris@gmail.com. The Unquiet Heart was published in May 2008. And in case you’re new to my work, “Unquiet” is the sequel to Truth Dare Kill [May 2007] in which Danny McRae faces new enemies and new temptations. Both are also available as Audio Books for those long car journeys - or if you can't sleep. To whet your appetite for THE UNQUIET HEART, here's what a couple of reviewers had to say about TRUTH DARE KILL: CrimeSquad.com: "...Truth Dare Kill reminded me of Buchan’s The 39 Steps for its vitality and spirit of strength in the face of adversity. This marks an exciting debut for Danny McRae and I look forward to his next adventure." Gloucestershire Echo: "... It's a rivetting read, and fans will be pleased to hear he's already penned a follow-up..." Historical Publications Review by Sally Zigmond: "I'm not normally a fan of dark crime novels but I was gripped by this one from beginning to end. I hated Danny at first. But slowly I took his side as I became immersed in his struggle to discover exactly what happened to him during the war. A gripping if disturbing read. Why did I want to write about a struggling private detective in post-War London? I've always loved the image of the lone, troubled hero trying to do good in a bad world. He’s tough but fallible, driven and obsessive, yet has a romantic streak a mile wide. He can handle a gun and take a beating, but is melted by a woman’s smile. He’s cynical but not so world weary that he lacks idealism. He’s Le Carré’s Smiley and of course Chandler’s Marlowe. I’m also fascinated by the post-war years when people picked up their lives in a Britain that had changed forever. It’s an era just out of reach of my own memory, but the old family photos and the Pathe newsreels tell the story. Faces hardened by years of rationing and deprivation, but softened by victory and the promise of a more egalitarian society. London itself, scarred and broken, and wreathed in yellow smog but defiantly regenerating. In other words the perfect ‘noir’ landscape in which to unleash my tortured Scottish hero, Danny McRae. He’s not me, but maybe I wish he was… For more details on THE UNQUIET HEART - book blurb and first chapter - check out the next web page.
