TRAILER FOR THE END O THE RAINBOW .....

THE END OF THE RAINBOW
A new venture best described as 'faction' .... Fiction, yes but oh so regretably based on the reality of 21st century politics in Britain today. Ambition, delusion, greed, all lead to MURDER .... and potentially an end to life as we have known it.
BOOKS IN THE JOHN ROCHE DETECTIVE SERIES
The latest in the series ......
Set in Ireland and in the United States, here is a story of twins, almost identical in everyway except the ways that mattered most to their father and to society at the time. Their reunion after many years ends in murder. But which is saint and which is sinner? Who is the corpse and who did the deadly deed?

John Roche explained .....
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N65AHCS
History Will Dictate uncovers the background to John Roche ... Why he is? Who he is? How did he end up so taciturn and impossible to befriend? When a corpse is found in the Irish quarter of a major UK city, who better to solve the crime? Only somebody who had grown such a thick skin, with so few expectations of people could survive such a personal challenge to his own mental health. It proved to be a very small world - and the past is always there to remind us who we really are.
OTHER JOHN ROCHE BOOKS
A QUESTION OF CONSCIENCE
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07734BHXS
John Roche is still working in the UK, but he has moved 'down South' and is now based in London. He has been promoted, and demoted, and promoted again a number of times in the intervening years, but nobody can quite bring themselves to actually 'fire' him.
This murder sees him take it upon himself to cross the water to follow in the footsteps of a murderer. A journey that he is trepidous to make since his views, his affection for 'his homeland' will be severely tested. Whether it is a challenge to himself to prove his own superiority over the past, or to catch a murderer really only himself can say, but he has no doubt about either outcome. Roche is nothing if not perfectly sure of his own ability - and his own steely armour against sentiment and nostalgia.
DANGEROUS DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07122QK3H
Dangerous Delusions of Grandeur sees John Roche still in London, and being challenged by an opponent that has every chance of outwitting him since - like himself - they do not think rationally. He is faced with a series of improbables and suspects abound.
There is not only a question of who is the murderer - but indeed who is the victim? Once again his sleuthing takes him out of London - much to the chagrin of his employers, but since he is almost certainly going to get to the bottom of the mystery, they will only make tutting sounds, and pretend to be put out by his usual degree of insubordination. Roche does not 'do subordinate'. He does not really recognise hierarchy. Neither his own, nor anybody elses. Which is why his yoyoing up and down the rankings is of little consequence to him, and why the stick of demotion or the carrot of promotion is useless.

About Elle Fran
ELLE FRAN WILLIAMS is based in England with roots in Ireland. She is a former social worker, so she has had decades of experience and has gathered many stories relating to people ---- good, bad, funny, horrific, but all part of the rich tapestry of life.
ELLE FRAN has worked in both the public and voluntary sectors, from grass roots to decision making. She has a degree in Social Science, and a Masters in Social Policy but her writing is easy to read, fast moving, entertaining and sometimes funny.
Almost her first job after college was as Personal Assistant to Peter Benenson, the co-founder of Amnesty International, and on his retirement with Jack Halpern his successor. She has also worked with children and young people; with people with dementia and their carers; with offenders and recidivist prisoners; with alcohol and drug abusers and with immigrant community groups.
Much later - switching scenes, she managed the British Performing Arts Medicine Trust, a charitable organisation that links performing artists, with career affecting or destroying illnesses and injuries to medical, surgical, psychiatric and emotional help to enable them to keep working, or to return to work.
Less social-work connected, but nonetheless giving another insight into people and how they think and operate, She spent many years working in a university setting linking small businesses to the expertise that would help them to survive or grow in difficult tiems be that technical, managerial, financial or legal help.
From a writer's perspective, she also spent an illumiating year working for the National Union of Journalists - which was an eye opener, and useful now that so much of the mainstream media has become so 'owned' and hence so unrellable!
She is now a full time writer having written 19 books to date, plus an avid blogger - which gives an outlet for both some anger and some rejoicing at the good, bad and ugly things that are occurring in today's sometimes upleasant world.
