Lionel Ward

I have been an independent bookseller since 1989 years and am also organiser of the Taunton Literary Festival. I also wrote and published for 10 years a literary magazine covering art and culture in Taunton and West Somerset. The Elliot Todd mysteries are centred around bookshop owner Elliot Todd, his eccentric but lovable employee Aggie, his main employee and sidekick Esther, his history loving friend Cameron, his interfering but admirable mother and a whole host of other characters.
