When You See Six Magpies in Wales: Run, Forger, Run!
|
Crime and adventure fiction set in Wales may be harder to find than tales from England, Ireland and Scotland, but it is worth the effort when you do! The wild landscape crossed by winding roads that lead to quaint, isolated villages of durable white stucco on rough stone with slate roofs provide the perfect background for dubious deeds and ghostly goings on. If you’re looking for an adventurous visit to wild Wales from the comfort of our armchair, you can stop here. You start your visit in Cardiff, and will get lost in the Brecon Beacons before you find out if the owner of the wounded cell phone on the cover survived or not. Take an American forger, a Welsh beauty, the Godfather of English crime, and the legend of the sunken city of Llys Gwyn Nudd, the ‘White Court’ of Nudd, where the floors were strewn with gold; |
mix well with a dash of all the things that blur the fine line between love and hate, heroism and cowardice, generosity and greed, truth and lies. When the forger finds a manuscript with the clue to the location of Llys Gwyn Nudd, can he run fast enough to get the gold and keep the beauty without getting killed in the process?
Come with us on a trip to the wilds of Wales to find out. The trip starts in the forger’s office in Cardiff, where he is serving time in Purgatory for his past transgressions, when the door opens and a mysterious woman enters, setting off a chain of events that leads to the wounded cell phone on the front cover, and beyond.
