about me

All my books are complete, published and available as hard copies on Amazon or via Kindle and Smashwords. If you like what you read I would be more than happy to send a signed hard copy free of charge. Please e-mail your details to g2.gray@gmail.com.

I started writing over 15 years ago. I do it because I love it ... I've realised unless you're famous, or a dishonest politician, the chances of ever making a living out of this game is as likely as winning the lottery.

Unquiet Mind

Simon M Gray

A hot and sweaty journey of action and drama, where each page keeps you hanging on to the bitter end for the answer.


Unquiet Mind is an explosive sequel to Blinkered, where once again, Gray lets his multi-perspective of countries, act as a vivid backdrop to the interaction of his principal characters. Three UK schools are attacked by child suicide bombers. The start of a vicious terrorist campaign or something more personal? Cayden, a successful businessman, is floundering in the wake of his girlfriend’s murder two years ago. The bombings threaten to pull him under forever. Itchy; unable to relax, enticed to Miami by Sly Williams, a Homeland Security Agent, Cayden’s attraction for her is a weakness, which she exploits to manipulate him back into the brutal world that murdered his girlfriend. Cayden journeys into the remote Peruvian jungle, protecting a young woman, whose love might just give him the answers he so desperately needs.

 

Time Stops Ticking

Simon M Gray

Life rushes on. Do we make every second count, or want to stop time ticking by?


China. Desperate to secure its status as the world’s new superpower, develops a plan that threatens the stability of the West. A situation that should be a world away from four disconnected school friends, embarking on a re-bonding cycling holiday. It’s a ride into the heart of the People’s Republic but instead of strengthening their unity, suspicion grows at every turn, love grows, trust disintegrates, until their very existence is threatened. Time Stops Ticking is a novel very much of our times, set vividly against the dramatic backdrop of a China that most tourists never experience – rural, raw and real. A feast of high-octane drama with twists a-plenty for the cycling Brits along their switchback route of friendship.

 

Blinkered

Simon M Gray

A callous businessman, a disillusioned Trinidad detective, a thriller with a serious heart, raising questions that every one of us faces in our daily lives.


Two months before the launch of the Tomahawk Blade, his company on a financial knife-edge, Cayden Callejon comes into conflict with the shady Maalik Maharaj. Cayden attempts to control the situation but circumstances force him to cooperate with an overstretched Homeland Security agent, Sly Williams, who is determined to prove herself.



Meanwhile, a detective, Lancelot ‘Bumbles’ Winston (LBW), escorts Jada Gittens, a convicted criminal and Maalik’s enforcer, to be extradited. LBW’s apathy helps Gittens to escape, resulting in the murder of a sergeant. Guilt and disillusionment impel LBW to pursue Gittens, despite his official suspension.



Life may not have delivered all that LBW hoped for, but his true colours show themselves under pressure, while the reader senses Cayden’s capacity for change. After a kidnapping, a love triangle and a gruesome murder, the lives of the two men converge in Trinidad, where matters come to a head. Who will win and who will survive? Will Cayden ensure the launch of the Blade? And at what cost?
