HALIFAX WEATHER
BadBlood

The war with France is over and Sergeant Moses Blood leaves Spain after twenty years of soldiering and returns to Yorkshire, believing that his fighting days are over. But new enemies await him on the streets of Halifax where he spent the first ten years of his life in the workhouse.

After learning the truth about his parents’ tragic deaths, he seeks to punish those responsible - the Drakes. But soon finds his own life threatened by the Drakes, while facing further danger at the hands of an old adversary.

Blood is befriended by Waterloo veteran Billy Grubb, who has his own score to settle with the Drakes, and together they resolve to deliver their own form of justice.

And to do that, they must spill some bad blood …


BAD BLOOD is only available from Amazon in paperback or Kindle eBook

Hi potential advertiser,

At the moment I use Google Adsense to pay for the sites upkeep but the adverts are very intrusive and annoying. I would rather use local, more relevant advertisers. So, with that in mind I would like to offer you a monthly or annual package that I'm sure will be attractive to you.

My aim is to keep package prices low enough to be attractive. A list of options are:-
Full website sponsor for £250 per year (7 webpages of your choice including the Homepage).
Website sponsor £100 per year (7 webpages of your choice but not on the Homepage).
Webpage sponsor £10 per month (2 pages of  your choice but not on the Homepage).

Best regards
