These scenes from the globe are an odyssey through love, grief, friendship, death, spite, mirth, violence, nightmare and the unknown. They take place variously in fashionable ski resorts in Switzerland; a prestigious language school in Cambridge; an ocean going yacht; a ditch in woodland; David Bowie''s private residence in the Canton de Vaud; the den of a terrorist cell in Holland; mermaids off St David's Head in Wales; the tossing of the caber at the Highland Games in Scotland; all accompanied by tastings from the finest cellars, making for a very heady brew! Armed and Dangerous, the title story of the collection, is a hilaroius black novella on the suthor's military service in the pulverized, beleaguered city of Berlin during the Cold War. The tales are topped off with authentic Celtic Triads and a triumphant Ode to the Welsh Leek.
