SAFE HOUSE coming soon

A great read to look forward to this summer is SAFE HOUSE, the new crime novel from Chris Ewan.  It’s set in the Isle of Man, and is a change of direction from ‘The Good Thief’s Guides.’ Plumber Rob Hale wakes up in hospital following a motorcycle accident. He’s concussed, but is certain that there was a girl on the back of his bike, but she’s disappeared, and no one will believe she ever existed...

There’s been a host of excellent advance reviews. I like this from Mean Streets: Actually, Ewan hasn’t so much lost the humour as strapped it on to a 1000cc plot that tears around the Isle of Man (and a few other locations) like a TT superbike. It’s a thrilling ride: full of bumps, swerves, and bone-breaking crashes.’ Read more here


There’s going to be a launch party for Safe House hosted by Henry Bloom Noble Library this Thursday 2 Aug at 7.30 pm at the Nobles Park Pavillion.  Chris will also be talking about Safe House at The Manx Blind Welfare Society in Corrin Court on Friday 3rd Aug, 7.30 for 8 pm. Find out how to book tickets for both events here
