'Untethered' deals with heavy drinking, isolation, PTSD and a writer struggling in search of identity. A search for reasons to go on, having already crawled stoic through life’s darkness.
Semi auto-biographical crime noir, full of dirty realism.
''...its 186 pages are packed full of deceit, human depravity and surprisingly dark humour.'' - Amanda Brightman
---------------------
John's bored in his witness protection program in Bristol. He's both an ex SAS soldier and former doorman of the infamous Manchester club, the Hacienda. As he searches for meaning at the bottom of many a glass, madness sets in and cryptic messages start to arrive.
One note comes with a knock on his door and a chance to find a missing girl; to start over again... as a Private Investigator.
His therapist encourages him to put his demons on paper; to write it all out. As John battles with his past, could this writing lead him to find the girl, his future and maybe even love?
