Author Description

Simon Hyde's family is dead - its members murdered by a gang of ruthless smugglers who would stop at nothing to protect their secrets and their wealth. But now many of their number are dead as well, killed by Hyde and his friend Matthew Turner in a night of violence that ended a year in which Hyde had been turned from boy to man, from son to orphan, from blacksmith to killer. Now he was leaving the village where he was born and raised, following the trail of one of the smugglers who had escaped his attack on the tide mill on the coast that had been their headquarters, heading inland, seeking revenge against the person who was behind it all and who, in Hyde's eyes was responsible for the deaths of his family. Set in the mid 18th century on the south coast of England, The Storm Chaser is the sequel to After The Storm, the first Simon Hyde novel.
