Item description from seller

Paperback. Once again you are invited to share the lives of three intrepid adventurers as they confront the ambitions of eight cloned women. Now retired, senior homicide detective Henry Gordon is faced with a totally unexpected dilemma when his companion in adventure Tracey DeLacy resists all of his overtures for settled married life and returns to Karmel. While struggling to understand Tracey's motives he is presented with another complication in his existence when artist and former police constable Julia Roots moves in with him. An unusual combination of woman and child, Julia quickly becomes an essential part of his household and is soon swept up into some of his adventures. Finally, after all kinds of mayhem involving the wildest of the Cleo Green clones, our hero decides that enough is enough and that he will not contemplate risking his life and the lives of his companions any further. After almost succeeding in that he is then thrust into a strenuous struggle for survival against the most awesome of nature's forces with none other than a Cleo Green for company. Such are their experiences he finds that not only is his perception of the clones profoundly altered but also that he is able to confront a personal demon that had him fearful of any close interaction with them. This, the third novel of the Octagon Fragrance series, has all of the exciting elements of the previous two. It takes the reader all over Australia and overseas to Switzerland, Africa and an island in the Indian Ocean as it indulges in high flying adventure, broad humour, romance and earthy relationships. If you have never experienced Octagon Fragrance before 'The Money Initiative' is sure to leave you gasping for more! This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

About the Author

Herbert Back lives in Queensland, Australia, and is educated to university standard. He has followed a great number of pursuits in his lifetime and even in retirement is involved with computers, electronics, carpentry, motor mechanics, metal working and, of course, writing. He spent a great deal of his younger days travelling by every means available all over the vast state of Queensland and also embarked on several long motoring trips through the other states of Australia. Willing to try his hand at anything he worked as a public servant, clerk, accounting machine technician, postal officer, taxi driver, milk vendor, motor mechanic, metal worker and even farm hand. For relaxation Herbert enjoys reading, music, gardening and membership at a local gym. A lifetime fascination with movies has seen him build up an impressive library of titles both old and new and his tastes extend to most genres although he admits to a distinct bias to science fiction, modern action and romantic comedy. Another aspect of modern life Herbert finds endlessly fascinating is aviation and the space industry. He recalls being on a study course when the first moon landing was achieved and admits that while the details of that epic journey come very easily to mind he has retained nothing about what the course was about! All through his life Herbert nursed an ambition to write fictional novels. During his last decade of active employment human cloning became, and still is, a major social issue. He saw in that inspiration for a series of novels that were not too heavy handed or moralistic to explore at a reasonably practical level what might happen when a group of cloned women are unleashed upon an unsuspecting free world. So the Cleo Greens were born. Naturally Herbert could not let the clones snatch all of the limelight so the story became a rollicking tale of adventure, romance, human relationships and ambition. As a writer he hopes that his readers enjoy his work as much as he did creating it! At present Herbert has struck a conundrum as to what to do with the "Octagon Fragrance" series now that "The Nightingale Initiative" is complete. He is hoping that feedback from his loyal readers will present him with the best direction to take, but, rest assured, he will not remain idle for long!
