MIGRANTS

​

I am intensely proud of completing and publishing my first novel " Migrants"

 

I was inspired to write the novel after witnessing the plight of thousands of Asian refugees night after night on the BBC News.

 

The novel tells the story of five women who are uprooted from their homelands and face adversity in trying to rebuild their lives.

 

The novel has received excellent reviews and is being printed in the Far East as well as Europe.

 

A sequel " Wanderers" will be published in October

​

STICK OR TWIST

 

Stick or Twist is the autobiography of Keith Sobey, the most successful sports gambler in the UK.

 

Keith is best known for founding the Centaur Group which was the largest betting investment , betting education and bloodstock company in the UK.

 

Centaur were Betfair'spreferred education contractor. However the cessation of that contract in 2012 led to the company going into liquidation. Stick or Twist provides full details of the Company's collapse.
