The Worms in Fools' Fingers
When wickedness is confronted by righteousness, it is often difficult to tell them apart. Seventeenth century Europe has been ravaged by war for almost thirty years. The people are broken, starving, and riven by disease. Out of the devastation and their desperation for somewhere to lay the blame comes the terror of the witch persecutions. Udo Beck is a soldier who has survived a battle that he vows will be his last. Learning of the fortunes being made by witch confessors, he decides where his future lies - a decision that will change his very humanity and the lives of those around him.
In the German state of Saxony, an outbreak of a horrific contagion is blamed on witchcraft, and the zealotry of an ambitious Bishop brings terror throughout the state. Disparate and memorable characters are brought together on the forested slopes of the Harz mountains where each must confront their own iniquities as their lives are seized by events and forces beyond their control.
From England, from the frozen shores of the Baltic, and from the blue limpid waters of the Caribbean, The Worms in Fools’ Fingers is an historical adventure - a tale of ambition, greed, and betrayal that destroys lives and families, and renders formerly unbreakable friendships asunder.

The Proof of God
Breaking with centuries of tradition that say that proving the existence of God is not possible, The Proof of God solves the long-vaunted issue concerning whether God exists. This book argues that ‘God is almost everywhere’ with the effect that proving his existence is very easy; indeed, for over two thousand years, the solution has been expressly set out in the Holy Bible.
Drawing insight from the Scriptures of the Christian faith, this book argues that God’s existence is demonstrated in both the Judges and Prophets of the Old Testament and the Gospel of Christ in the New Testament. By exploring the nature of ‘proof’, this book breaks new ground in an age-old question. Proof, it is argued, is a matter of God imposing Himself on us; it is He who makes the important contributions to our daily lives.
Thus, firstly, Man proves God because of his intricate design and image, and secondly, God proves God through the sending of his Son to the cross to die and resurrect for our sins. Whilst the Christian narrative is well-trodden ground, this book presents it in a light never seen before to definitively conclude arguments about God’s existence in his favour.
