Annie and Laurence Trent are a young, professional couple living in a London suburb. Laurence is beset with worry: about money, about his job, about the economy and the future. He and Annie long to start a family but can't afford to. It is 18 December, 2009. Just before midnight, she urgently turns and wakes him. There are sounds of intrusion downstairs. Laurence arms himself with the hammer they keep by the bed and ventures out to the landing.
He waits and listens at the rail; and with a surge of relief decides the thief or thieves have taken what they wanted and gone. Then he realizes someone is still below: still below, and heading for the stairs.

Biographie de Richard Herley

I was born in England in 1950 and educated at Watford Boys' Grammar School and Sussex University, where my interest in natural history led me to read biology. My first successful novel was "The Stone Arrow", which was published to critical acclaim in 1978. It subsequently won the Winifred Holtby Memorial Prize, administered by the Royal Society of Literature in London, and was the first in a trilogy.
This was followed by "The Penal Colony" (1987), a futuristic thriller that formed the basis of the 1994 movie "No Escape", starring Ray Liotta. The main difficulty for the author is making his voice heard in the roar of self-promotion. I believe that the work I am producing now is of higher quality than my prize-winning first, and ask you, the reader, to help spread the word by telling your friends if you have enjoyed one of my books.
