Description
xGraham Parsons is a man ordinaire whose well-ordered life is changed beyond measure when he witnesses the manslaughter of a 7 year old boy, Christopher. Whilst holding the dying child he experiences a profound out of body experience and minutes later suffers a life threatening attack, leaving him with permanent disabilities.
His recovery brings with it a telepathic connection with children who need help. An affinity which threatens his sanity, marriage and eventually his life.
This tale of discovery begins with a fearful and confused denial which takes him to the edge of reason until eventually, he accepts and employs his remarkable gift with a charming pragmatism that disarms doubters and helps to salvage blighted young lives. His simple, candid honesty wins the support of four friends from very different backgrounds; Christopher's mother, a GP, a Child Protection Officer and a Detective Sergeant.
This story chronicles the shocking, moving and yet sometimes heart-warming episodes in his new life.

xAfter thirty years in the insurance industry, latterly as a pensions consultant, Jeff decided to take a gap decade.
His life has been filled with formative influences, such as those imparted by his woodwork teacher, 50 years ago, who gave him a lifelong love of wood and taught him how to work it. You might say Mr Dunkerley was Jeff's Mr Chips. (No pun intended).
Not forgetting Pam, his wife of 39 years, his son James and daughter Kim.
More recently, a master carver named Mike Painter taught Jeff how to carve wood and so wood carving has filled a significant part of the 'Gap', along with coach driving, here and on the continent, (boys toys). Speaking of continent, there is the new found love of France; it's culture, food and of course, wine.
Felling trees, cooking and a short but very enjoyable spell as an examinations officer at a local college also helped to fill time but the real surprise was fiction. Writing it that is.
What started as a vivid dream that stayed with him, became a four year journey of discovery that resulted in the publication of Graham's chronicles, A Child's Eye View, Graham's Gang and Help Out House.
Oh, nearly forgot, Jeff is 62 and 8 years into his gap decade. Watch this space.
