Hi All,

I hope you'll join me in celebrating the publication of my debut novel, Sixty-One Nails, which is published in the UK and Australasia by Angry Robot Books today, 29th October.

Here's what it's about: ~

When Niall Petersen has a heart Attack on the London Underground he thinks it's the end. It's only the beginning.

He is revived by an old lady who greets him with the cold solace that a creature from another world was trying to possess his newly dead corpse. By reviving him she has prevented the crossing, but now the creature will know him. It will be able to find him, and when it does it will kill him and his fourteen year-old daughter.

Sixty-One Nails is about Niall's quest to survive and to find a way to protect his daughter. It builds on the core of English folk-lore and real history like the Quit Rents Ceremony which has been performed annually in the Royal Courts of Justice since 1211 and is the oldest legal ceremony in England apart from the coronation.

If you'd like to see more on the background and locations of the story, you can visit my website at http://shevdon.com.

Many thanks.
