The Long Chin of the Law
I am delighted to announce that this futuristic crime/farce novella is now available as an ebook. It features nine linked stories.
The first of the nine was the very first story that I was completely happy with, and I wrote it on December 27th 1991, which is more than twenty-seven years ago.
It was also the first story I wrote that seemed to demand a sequel, and so it began the long process of me tying every fiction I write into every other.
Titian Grundy is the Prefect of Police on the Isle of Chrome. He travels everywhere on a motorised unicycle and lives in a society where everything takes turns being illegal. Even the solving of crime becomes illegal at one point, but not solving it remains illegal too, which puts him in a tricky situation.
Originally published as the third part of my book Nowhere Near Milkwood, this novella is now finally presented as a complete work in its own right, which is the way I originally envisioned it.
