The Captive Shadow 💀 scary.co

Set in two vividly contrasting periods, Don Kenefick's first novel, The Captive Shadow, is compelling, richly observed and thought provoking. Christopher Goodwin sadly never meets Peter, the son he'd longed for, but both are painfully shy and uneasy in their attempts to fulfil their yearnings for love and family life. Each finds a woman who can bring him happiness, but fate intervenes and disaster strikes. The outbreak of war changes Christopher's life drastically and he witnesses hatred, violence and death at close hand. Peter's life is shaped by his father's wartime experiences, and when he seems to be on the brink of happiness vile brutality erupts from the drug-fuelled streets of modern London. Skilfully written to fill the void between popular and literary, this novel will appeal to all readers, male and female. Those who hunger for drama will relish its tense climaxes, romantics will delight in the tender interludes, and cynics will enjoy the sprinkling of almost Dickensian humour and critical irony. In parallel with its story, this book is the author's long-awaited offspring. His lifelong ambition to write was thwarted when he suffered a stroke at the age of thirty-nine and by years of poor health which followed. Now he has fathered this superb novel, and others will hopefully follow
