Vera
Murray is a former local government politician
and writers group organiser in a large Indian housing estate.
Murray
wrote her first book aged 85 and must be one of the world’s oldest authors to
debut an eBook in the shape of Move Over
James Bond and Other Stories.
Bent
Banana Books has selected Vera’s collection of short stories as one of four eBooks
that are different we publish this week.
The
first of 33 tales introduce hapless agent Ernest Moneylove who daydreams of being
James Bond, as he bungles his way through solving mysteries.
Murray
has that rare gift for writing comedy.
She
is also a dab hand at pathos shown in the predicament of unwitting drug mule,
Belinda, and the surprising story of IRA minnow Patrick.
Murray’s
interest in the supernatural is put to comic and sometimes dramatic effect.
Titles
promise merriment: Love is like the Measles, Your
mother has to go and Cheeky Charlie
meets his match.
Delightful
drawings from the author’s great
grandchildren add charm to these wickedly delicious tales.
