Mardi's Revenge - Barrel Coops

. .

Résumé :
In a world where secrets whispered among the shadows could mean the difference between life and death, our story unfolds. It begins in a land divided, where power is seized through cunning and cruelty. Here, amidst the rugged terrain and dense forests, a tale of resilience and revenge is born. In a remote enclave, hidden from the world's prying eyes, a young girl named Mardi recovers from a brutal attack, helped by a recluse who lives in solitude and secrecy, a man who harbours his own secrets. She's known as the ghost by those who fear her elusive presence. With hair as dark as the night and eyes that seem to hold the secrets of the universe, Mardi possesses a remarkable gift - the art of vanishing. For months, she's eluded capture by the nefarious Victor, a ruthless warlord who rules through fear and force. Victor's power knows no bounds, and his thirst for control drives him relentlessly forward. But there's something he desires more than anything else - to unmask the elusive ghost, and bring her under his dominion. As Mardi's life of isolation and evasion continues, another soul, Hutch, finds himself drawn into her enigmatic world. A man of quiet strength and unwavering determination, Hutch, blackmailed into compliance by Victor, embarks on a quest to find this mysterious ghost, who has captivated his thoughts. Little does he know that this journey will lead him to confront not only Victor's tyranny but also the depths of his own courage. As the story unfolds, secrets long buried will surface, destinies will collide, and the scale of power will hang in the balance. In a world where shadows conceal both danger and salvation, who will emerge victorious? And can love and hope thrive in the darkest of times?

Biographie:
After the tragic loss of my girlfriend as a teenager, I sought an escape. My pub upbringing introduced me to a traveling gypsy family, and they allowed me to join their journey under one condition: I had to contribute. Soon, they discovered my talent for spontaneous storytelling, known as pantsing.

In villages and towns, I showcased this gift, crafting stories based on audience suggestions after Mahala's performances. My dyslexia prevented me from pursuing writing as a profession, given the cost of ghostwriters and publishing. Now, with five children and a 50th birthday surprise, I've told countless imaginative bedtime stories. Reflecting on my time with the gypsy family, I've realised the profound impact of storytelling on people, contemplating the possibility of chronicling that journey someday. Throughout my 30s and 40s, I occasionally returned to the stage for charity events, driven by my love for storytelling. My daughter encouraged me to write a novel, leading to my first series under the pen name Barrel Coops, named after her. It took just five months to write five books, with four more for editing, mainly due to my struggles with spelling and punctuation. After extensive feedback and courses, they are being rewritten for release in early 2024. Despite dyslexia being a constant challenge, I'm committed to writing. I hope my stories will captivate and inspire you, bringing enjoyment to your life....
