Full synopsis

The Reluctant Villain is the prequel to the author’s first novel, Ghostly Witnesses, the story of how the two young villains, Mark Yarrow and Gerry Reynolds, were drawn into the murky crime world of ex-policeman, Ernie Newsham…

Mark was no angel, but Gerry had a promising career ahead until Gerry’s boss retired and a new owner took over, giving him the most menial tasks and accusing him of stealing and, eventually, dismissing, Gerry.

Stalked by tragedy, as his pregnant girlfriend dies, the only person Gerry can turn to for help is Ernie – which plays straight into the crooked ex-policeman’s hands.

As Gerry transforms from an honest, hard worker into a reluctant criminal – what hope will the future hold?

James L Williams was born and raised in Betws-y-Coed in North Wales. After a life-long battle with his eye-sight, he became registered blind in 1993. Up until his retirement, he worked in a number of sectors as well as in the voluntary/charity sector helping disabled people. He uses audio assistive technology to tell his stories and published his first novel in 2017. He is the author of Ghostly Witnesses (also available as an audiobook) and Fatal Revenge, both mystery-thrillers. James is based in Ashton, Bristol.
