This is my latest project. The basic idea that I had was that a naive and somewhat proper young man meets various characters who are anything but that.
I had in mind Jonathon Harker in the Dracula story who journeyed on legal business to Transylvania. My character, David Morris, is journeying to Morocco. But even before he gets there his primness and naivity is challenged on-board ship.
Poor David suffers terribly in this novel, but nevertheless the resiliance of the human spirit keeps resurfacing, despite David's "ruin".
I enjoyed trying to recapture the era of 1950 when the seedier side of life was well hidden away from ordinary society. My poor hero, David Morris has no idea what lies in store for him as he journeys to Morocco and back!
I hope you enjoy reading the story!
