Archie could see the anger building. ‘This is the safest holiday possible in Covid times.’

‘Define safe,’ Agnes replied, the coffee mug raised in a threatening manner.

During the month of April I took part in the A-Z blogging challenge, and posted about my State Trilogy novels each day, including plots, themes, characters and the writing and publishing process. So if you’ve read the books, or haven’t but might be interested in them, I hope it will be of interest to some of you. All the posts can be found HERE.
