The Montagu Harrier

About the Book

It is a story about an architect that has a poignant experience in a chapter of his life. The Bronte Moorland and the Annapurna Himalayas are used as vehicles to deliver the complex life of a free-spirited femme fatal, the Montagu Harrier (a slim and elegant bird of prey), and the power of love that she has over the man that is blindsided by her fascinating persona and affections. With a hint of humour and danger, it is also an anecdotal account of what effects pot smoking could have on an individual, their complex lifestyle, and the synergies.

He set up his own practice in 2005, and after nursing his wife through cancer, he was widowed in 2009.
