About
BRITAIN WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN...
Harry Bacon, former head of psychic investigations for the Ministry of Defence, veteran of countless paranormal encounters, is about to do the unthinkable: retire. Then an unexpected message leads him into what could become his greatest – and strangest – case yet, a case whose foundations are inextricably linked to his own past.
Rule Zero is a darkly comic fantasy thriller packed with psychic spies, prescient journalists, contact clairvoyants, repressed supermen, a lethal cocktail waitress and a roving troupe of ape-like security guards.
-- About the author --
Laurence Timms is a 44-year old British writer who was born in Oxford and lives near Cambridge and, as such, never quite knows who to cheer for during the University Boat Race.
He has developed television and movie storylines for a major multinational toy company, won prizes for his short film scripts (money! small gold statues! alcohol!) and his first feature-length film script is currently in post-production. Rule Zero is his first novel. It won't be his last.
Laurence also plays the didgeridoo, and often gets it out at parties.
