Description

Set in a time span from the late 1980's to current day 2020; Love, loss, hate, race, addiction, loyalty and guilt are explored against a global back drop of the United Kingdom, Middle East Asia and The United States. We are invited to hear the dying confessions of a mysterious killer. Like tales told from the end of the bar top, or from above the glow of a roaring camp fire, we are encouraged to share in the narrator's excitement for his freshly acquired gossip. He has someone else's dirty secrets to spill.Driven by the events of a single unnamed protagonist (He is only ever referred to as Him, His, He, or Himself with the 'H' always being capitalized), the reader is invited over the course of the tale to imagine themselves filling the protagonist's role. Walking in "His" shoes, we experience a dark world filled with lies, sex, drugs, love, loyalty, violence, crime and Murder. Inevitably finding ourselves in an uncomfortable harmony, we are forced to consider how we all are disturbingly navigating between the fringes of fragility or ferocity and, how the human experience is more shared than we may care to believe.
