Death for a Starter (Percy' Chattey Books)

There are many ways of writing a story and I am certain all Authors write differently. Some plan the whole narrative before writing, other sketch the beginning, middle and end before putting pen to paper. I know one who has the beginning and the end but not the middle. I don't like either way, I think the story reads more natural when it takes on its own meaning and develops as one writes. And so it was with 'Death for a Starter.' The original idea was a detective story set in the eighteen hundreds during one of the periods in Ireland when the potato crop had failed and families were dealing with real famine. It came close to the original thought but it is more thrilling than that. We were delighted when it went on to win 'Best Historical Fiction' at the Pinnacle Awards. It was also the beginning of a trilogy as after its completion I went on to conclude the chronicle of the family in 'The Dauntless Factor' and finally 'The Cormacks' taking their history from the mid eighteen hundreds to the nineteen twenties.
