Local author Nicholas Voyd is set to release the latest tome in his long running series of bodice rippers, with copies available on Optimus Prime from 27 June. However, local fans can get their hands on a signed copy when Nicholas appears in Smalltown on 24 June.
Book number 13 references several places in the Smalltown and Dullbridge area which will immediately be recognisable to local readers.
The new book ‘Dead Emails’ follows the exploits of a member of staff in an unnamed local Smalltown and Dullbridge Town Council office, as she tries to discover exactly where all the emails sent to the office have gone.
Members of the public keep phoning the office to ask why they haven’t received a reply to their emails. Can they really all have gone into the spam folder or is something more sinister happening?
Still brooding after his recent brush with the All-New-Yet-Unimproved Somerset Cuonty Council’s Standards Board, Councillor Jack McCods shares the employee’s concerns, because he also has a problem – he has no idea how to access his emails on his Town Council-supplied iPad.
The only person who can help him is the council staff member who is also battling with the mystery of the missing emails. Can they team up together to solve the problem?
Unfortunately not. Cllr McCods is banned from the Town Council offices after an unfortunate incident which occurred the last time the Town Council employee tried to explain how to operate his iPad to him.
Time is running out for McCods – he needs to access his emails to get the details of the Special Course he needs to undertake as part of his punishment meted out by the Standards Board for making inappropriate comments and standing too close to the Town Council employee. Without that email he has no idea where or when the course is scheduled to take place.
With his BeFuddled colleagues questioning his every move, McCods must find a way to operate his ipad before he loses everything. Then another email goes missing…
Nicholas will be signing copies of his latest blockbuster in G.W.Hurlings. There will be a large influx of women-of-a-certain-age who will begin queueing from 2.49am.
