The Almost Perfect Plot: Coincidence is always unexpected, and often lethal !

When Thomas Hardy, (who is anything but a famous author), finds himself being ejected from his home he makes a decision. Forced to change his lifestyle, he decides to stop writing manuals for flat pack furniture and try his hand at fiction. This darkly humorous tale with a hint of a thriller follows Tom as he stumbles through his new life, staggering from disaster to disaster, as he attempts to come up with a plot for his new endeavour. What he hadn't bargained for was the unfortunate chain of events he sets off, causing real life to start to mimic his story, as he is pursued by a serial killer as well as the law and his ex-wife. Ed Halliday's books are for lovers of dark humour. His reviewers have likened his work to Douglas Adams of Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy fame as well as Elmore Leonard and a touch of the humour of the great Terry Pratchett.Read more
