Joe, a disciplined and compassionate paramedic with a military background, had always followed orders. He witnessed the trials and horrors of civilian life daily, sometimes watching people die before his eyes or experiencing the miracle of bringing someone back from the brink of death. However, nothing could have prepared him for the carnage that would ensue when he was forced to turn his attention to the deadly world of 21st-century politics.Joe had survived life on the front lines as a soldier and understood that people were rarely entirely good or bad. He realized that personal biases and prejudices often colored one’s perspective. Content to go with the flow and live a quiet life, everything changed when he met the love of his life, Emma Lomax. Her vibrant spirit and sense of purpose compelled him to become more involved and question the decisions made by those in power that so adversely affected the lives of ordinary people.In turbulent times, with London on the brink of a dictatorship, Joe found himself caught in the middle of a political upheaval. As people died, he took on the roles of victim, chronicler, and detective, trying to unravel whether the violence was orchestrated by someone in a position of power who saw him as a threat or the work of a madman on a vendetta mission. Thrust into the heart of a deadly political game, Joe must navigate a treacherous landscape where the line between sanity and lunacy is increasingly blurred.
Elle Fran lives in England, but has an equally strong Irish background, making her at one and the same time romantic and cynical! She was trained as a Social Worker, working over the years with a vast variety of people, problems and needs - from pre-school infants to recidivist prisoners, from people with Alzheimers to immigrants, from alcohol and drug addicts to teenagers with problems caused by both nature and nurture … and much in between.
For an essential balance in life, she also ran The Performing Arts Medicine Trust, a charity set up to link struggling and injured dancers, actors, singers, musicians, acrobats … et al … with the right medical help and advice.
She also worked for a lot of years in a unit of Cranfield University offering practical and inspirational advice to businesses and individuals by linking them with appropriate expertise. In addition, for light relief and out of interest in the Press, the media, and the dissemination of information around the world, she spent an eventful, informative and interesting 12 months minuting meetings for the National Union of Journalists!
She is a graduate of both the University of North London and Loughborough University, having a Diploma in Social Policy and latterly as a very mature student embarked on a Master's Degree in Social Policy at Loughborough University.
But far more than all of that, she has learned more from life itself and despite everything most fortuitously, Elle Fran still just likes people .... warts and all!

Elle Williams provides a riveting political story that eerily rings true in modern times. She manages to mix humanity and humour to great effect and had me pondering the fragile mind and how close genius and psychopath sit together. The story is filled with a range of relatable characters from the reluctant worlds of politics, law enforcement and the press. A wonderfully written page turner that will hook you in from the start and won’t leave you disappointed.
