about me

Addicted to writing and creating intriguing plots.

I've spent the last 9 months immersed in historical research and think I've found a plot to rival The Da Vinci Code.

"Lost Isis" is my fifth novel and I'm about a third of the way through. I'm keen to have feedback on the style. Here I've just uploaded the first ten chapters of the present day part of the story.

Please give honest, constructive feedback.

Lost Isis

Murray Bailey

Was a secret stolen from Tutankhamen's tomb - a secret so powerful that men are dying to get their hands on it?


When Jon Taylor thinks he's uncovered a secret stolen from Tutankhamen’s tomb he fears it could cost him his life. But worst of all he can’t recall the events that may explain what he found. Puzzled by the trail of clues, he begins to piece together a story of greed, betrayal and murder. Pursued by men ready to kill to stop him, Jon must make the link between the present and a brutal past...


Over three thousand years ago, on the night the pharaoh tries to erase the past, a young soldier called Maya knows he can no longer stand by and watch. Although he cannot understand the symbols and diagrams of the ancient royal scribe, Maya knows he must protect the truth. A truth that will have consequences far beyond his understanding. A truth to the greatest riddle of all time.

 

Kill or Cure

Murray Bailey

Short thrillers that should keep you guessing to the very end.


Four years ago a burnt body was found and its circumstances have bothered DI Taylor ever since. Is it murder or suicide or something very different?

 

Suspicion

Murray Bailey

How easy is it to create a fake identity? If someone close is not who they claim to be, what are they hiding from?


Kate believes she's found the perfect man - even when he confesses his secret. Not only the secret, but his identity turn out to be lies and Kate tries to get on with her life without him. A year later everything is thrown into question and Kate begins to follow a trail, travelling from Windsor to Prague and then to Washington DC. However, she's not the only one who wants to know the truth.

I read the first 4 and then the last chapter (what a cheat I am!). Overall it's a well written, well structured story with an authentically recreated setting. The characters are strong and compelling - especially the relation ship between Bobby and his dad which I could relate to. The punctuation... view book

The opening is soooo important and I struggled a little with yours. My own preference would be to go straight into the story rather than set the tension. However if you do use it, perhaps consider: “Could this be true? What was the virus referred to in the notebook? Something about it said this ... view book

Steve Prologue The prologue gripping and sets the atmosphere well. The tension builds nicely even though the conclusion is clear. The only thing to think about is the slamming of his car door. Why does he do this? I get the sense his character would close it carefully, with precision. Some note... view book

This is an intriguing thriller about a group of mercenaries being persued by a criminal. The Main character is delightfully drawn as a killer, but one with principles - evidenced by ensuing the girl was not hurt in the hit on the brug baron. One might anticipate that the man persuing him would be a ... view book

Pamela Your plot is interesting and your main character--Zsa Zsa--is delightful. I read six chapters and thought you developed your characters well, although as a narrator your voice comes over quite a bit, providing the reader with background. I've been advised to avoid this; try and insert your i... view book
