A Man of Great Promise
(2025)(The fifth book in the Nearly Dearly Departed Club series)
A novel by Anthony Grace
Jerome ‘Duke’ Ellington has got big ambitions to change the world.
Unfortunately for him, nobody else seems to be on his wavelength. A lone voice in the wilderness, he has to find other ways to get his point across. Less talk, more action.
So, when peaceful discussion turns to violent protests on the streets of Stainmouth, the call goes out to Agatha Pleasant to find a solution to the increasingly volatile situation. She, in turn, draws on her backfiring bunch of disparate undesirables. Lucas. Mercy. Tommy. And Rose.
Her Nearly Dearly Departed Club.
With New Year’s Eve fast approaching, any thoughts of celebrating are cast to one side as events escalate quickly. Death is now a genuine possibility. Duke needs to be immobilised, preferably before it’s too late. There’s only one problem, though.
How do you stop a man who seems hell-bent on destruction?
