Welcome to another new author feature in conjunction with Amazon.

An Eclectic Mix of 7 Short Stories – Murder, Mystery & Intrigue by William Austin Johnson.

Published by bookpublishing4u.

Cover of William's latest book which is available on Amazon

About the book of short stories: They say that Silence is Golden, so, when it’s time to read your book, that is just what you want, some peace and quiet to absorb each and every word, each line, each sentence, and each paragraph, and each chapter until the very end. 

That is exactly why the code in all libraries is silence please.Of course, most books are of one particular subject from beginning to end. There is also the saying that Variety is the Spice of Life, and this book is exactly that.Seven short stories in one book for the reader to indulge in, and seven different scenarios. Seven different nightcaps, before you drift off to sleep. Of course, I’m not asking to please all as readers, I’m not asking to please all of the readers, but I hope that at least I can please some of the readers. Please read them all and enjoy them.

Leading a Double Life - By William Austin Johnson.

William's first book

About the story: From a teenager to an adult, with only revenge in my heart in the protection of my mother, and wanting to punish two men, Gus Stechman, and Henry Green, a pair of local gangsters, who raped my mother in payment for a debt that my father owed them. 

Cover of William's first book, Leading a Double Life, available on Amazon

When I turned eighteen, I achieved my goal, and in doing so, I encountered a powerful barrister from London, Mr Rodsinkski, who was the man behind Stechman and Green. 

He wanted to know the reason for their disappearance, and after excepting my reply, he enquired if I could help him with a difficulty that he needed help with, for a very substantial fee of course! 

It was from that moment onwards, after solving Mr Rodsinkski’s difficulty, that we became business partners from afar, and my journey through the pages in this book began.

*Watch out too for William's next book which is to be published shortly - a sequel to Leading a double life.
