Mysteries and Strange Events – Nine Short Stories
by Drew Jones
Genre: Mystery

Mysteries and Strange Events Volume One brings together an evocative debut collection of nine short stories from the author Drew Jones. They are fantastically wide ranging in subject, and includes Jaguar cars, railway accidents, strange salvage operations, commercial espionage, greed, science fiction and ghosts - and every reader will find a favourite within the book. They will all make him stop, think, and question. This amazing mix is completed with some light humour as the flamboyant sleuth – Mr Theodore Halfpenny, makes his first appearance.
This irresistible book will be your perfect companion as you commute to work, struggle through a long haul flight, or just to keep at the side of the bed after a long day.

Goodreads * Amazon

My name is Drew Jones and enjoy writing about mysterious and strange events. Some of my ideas are derived from my interest in classic cars, military airfields and the paranormal. I normally write in my study in Wales with my Labrador dog Monty at my feet, and many ideas and plots are thought through on our walks together in the woods. There are lots of ideas buzzing in my head, many involving our sleuth Theodore Halfpenny, who will appear in Mysterious and Strange Events Volume 2 - which I hope to start work on soon!
I have really had fun putting this collection together – so I hope you have enjoyed them too. Perhaps you have read them on your commute to work, on a plane as you travel towards your holiday, or as a quick read at the end of a long day.
As with all authors, I would be grateful if you would leave a review on Amazon – it only takes a second, and is always much appreciated.
It would be very nice to hear from all my readers, so if you would like to contact me personally, please email at: [email protected]

Hi - I’m Drew Jones, and I live in the wilds of West Wales! I have a wonderful golden Labrador called Monty – who usually lays at my feet while I write in my study. He is great company and many plots and stories are conjured up while we walk in the woods together.
I have quite diverse interests including collecting military memorabilia, cars, and British Cinema. These, combined with meeting equally diverse people from my work at a university and in the security business, have all combined to give me a wonderful library of characters and ideas for my stories.
In Volume One of Mysteries and Strange Events, I have introduced the character Theodore Halfpenny. I have great ideas and plans for him – so do watch out for him as he will be making another appearance soon.
As my work is in the form of short stories, it is difficult to imagine them as a movie – but I think A Sign of Danger might make an exciting movie and Solitude perhaps a more intriguing piece. Not forgetting the wonderful Theodore of course – I think you could have a lot of fun with him in a movie.

Wow that's a real place? Have you encountered some spooky events yourself?

Drew Jones

6/9/2019 02:19:17 pm

Yes the cover is an actual cottage that I have stayed in a couple of times.
Ooooh Emaline - that would be telling and might be the content of Volume Two, but in the meantime do take a look at Volume One!

That house on the cover makes me want to visit.....unless the mystery is a BAD one that happened there! I like short stories.

Drew Jones

6/9/2019 04:45:06 pm

Hi Kristen - I am not going to tell you good, bad, mysterious, poignant - you will have to read it...
Perhaps you should only visit the cottage in daylight!
Thanks for your comments
Kind Regards

I was going to guess some strange events occurred in that house on the cover, but the author already confirmed that in a previous post.

Drew Jones

6/17/2019 05:19:23 pm

Hi Kathy
The cover only relates to one story (Solitude) within a book of 9 stories. But certainly they all contain mysterious and strange events. Have a read and enjoy...
Kind Regards
Drew
