Secrets and Lies



All of history is secrets and lies... 

The present is just a cover story...

 
Metahominids: Mêta'hôm'i'nîdz: (pl.) n.
Ancient Greek: meta = other, hominids = men.*
*From Doctor John Dee's 1583 'Inventory of Magickal Correspondences'
 
Metahominids are humankind's oldest enemy; if they don't kill you, they will destroy your mind.  Even the finest brains are not immune.  When Sherlock Holmes' brilliant creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle fell victim, they made him believe that photographs of cut-out paper figures were images of real fairies. 
Within their traditional haunts of hill fort, woodland and barrow, metahominids are dangerous enough; but now they are abandoning the countryside to infest our urban spaces, and prey upon us on our own territory.
As this centuries old, covert war heats up, it falls to a shambling figure known only as 'D', and his pitifully underfunded department, to keep us safe - and ignorant of the nightmares that lurk, hidden in the every day world that we call 'reality'.
 Available early February 2013, a contemporary British fantasy, The Last Changeling reveals the hidden story behind present day real people, historical figures, and true events.
