The Time Detective - Book 1 - Discovery

Marshall Bellows is a present day crime fighter and Allan Besley his alter ego in 1956 (after the discovery of a wormhole during the chase of a sick, perverted serial killer). Can Marshall/Allan survive this double life in two times, two seemingly different worlds and two loves or will one the worlds pull him in deeper, where he finds it harder and harder to leave? This first book, Discovery, begins the fight for Marshall in both worlds. A man with strong convictions with no qualms about “getting his hands dirty” if that is what’s required. Is he judge, jury and executioner? Strange and desperate times require certain measures and Marshall is the man for the job, in both times.

The Man Without A Name

In picking up this book, you must have felt intrigued by the flavour of mystery. Mostly, it is so. Who killed Kennedy? Who was King Arthur? Did Diana die by accident? They are ready instances – all Anglo-Saxon compulsions, but other nations and cultures have theirs. The pages you have in your hands provide answer to the greatest mystery of all. Vital, far-reaching and outstanding for almost 2000 years. Why was the tomb of Jesus found empty? Who was the unnamed man who wrote the gospel called ‘John’ – an account different to all the others? The most knowing. Jewish and giving a vitally different understanding. The flow of questions arising out of his almost contradictory account makes for an evermore intriguing quest. The conclusions for an answer to the mystery that has stood before everyone, for so long, as by far, the mightiest of all.

Zanadu

What do you get when you combine a phonetically spelt outback station, a sarcastic ex-Detective with the last name Standononeleg, a tag-a-long named Duncan and a clapped out old ute?

A Queenslander’s idea of humour, a sheep or two and a kangaroo, too many cups of tea, and a murder most foul (and covered in red dust. Everything is covered in red dust there. Check your grundies).

You will need to read the rest of the story or the author will make me cark it in the next one.
