Description
Alexandra 'Alex' Holman-Hunt and Dr Oliver Kane live in worlds, poles apart.Alex lives and breathes the new-fashion. She hopes to influence a modern generation of women. Help them shape the way they dress-a new look to take them away from the austerity of the Fifties and the excesses of the Sixties. A new look to better place them in a man's world.Oliver Kane is very much buried in the past-the study of human history. He lives for what lies under the ground, sharing his passion with best friends; Linnet 'Lunar' Moon, a 'hippy digger', and a small black and white dog called Hector. He lives and works in academia, teaching his discipline, but also works with new enlightened Law and Order- new techniques to uncover bones and bodies-a new science; forensic archaeology.Their story, set in Britain, France and West Germany, is played out to the rich sounds and sights of the Seventies; in a world shaped by a terrible world war, and a new world order dictated by new freedoms and new constraints, as communism and democracy fight a new cold war. The world holds its breath.London holds it breath too-a killer stalks, and Oliver is drawn into the intrigue surrounding a serial murderer. Alex is stalked too, by a shadow intent on harm. She fears for her life-who will help her? Lives collide. Secrets are uncovered-death and discovery-murder and mutilation. A string of events unfold-a daisy chain.Daisy Chain is a powerful, complex erotic thriller from the masterly pen of Mark Montgomery, author of the popular Borderer Chronicles. A tale full of rich characters, gripping story telling, profound thought and an affectionate nod to a different time-when innocence still existed in a pre-internet world.
