Warning: Strong Adult ContentMike Angells is an openly gay CID inspector based in North East England. There are three men in his life: Raith Balan, Phil Roberts and Ross Whitburn. Mike is particularly close to Ross.Following a routine but significant investigation into thefts of farm machinery, Mike investigates the suspicious death of a footballer. The suspect's father threatens to expose a crime Ross committed many years earlier, unless Mike withholds evidence that would incriminate his son. Mike must choose which badge he is loyal to-the one he was given when he joined the Force or the tattoo he wears that symbolises polyamory. His decision leads to a brutal conclusion when two men who bear grudges, an ex-con and Balan's ex-lover, combine to exact revenge.Interspersed with Mike's story are comments made by Raith, Phil and Ross about Mike, each other, and the nature of their polyamorous relationship. It works for them, but, as Phil explains, they work at it.Neither full-on erotica nor hard-boiled crime, and with many light moments, this is a story about love, hatred, and the price which is paid for loyalty.

From Tracey Odessa Kane comes another book of poetry with a purpose - that purpose being to wake us from the sleep of daily life. Another Day Someday seeks to teach people how to think for themselves, as opposed to telling them what to think. It is a spotlight, one that aims to shed light and bring out into the open that which has been brushed under society's carpet for far too long. The road to Another Day Someday, though not elusive (not by any means), is still considered to be a bridge too far, a wish upon a star, that is simply out of reach for many. It is a road that is heavily laden with dreams and doubt, gain and guilt, promise and procrastination, hope and heartache. It is a road that we all long to tread upon, a road overflowing with purpose, passion, promise. It is a road unlike any other, a road upon which you can hear the overwhelming sound of 7 billion voices asking in whispered tones that age old question, "e;what if, if only."e; If you did ask poet Tracey Odessa Kane about that road, she'd say that one day, maybe Another Day Someday, we will all find the love, the strength and the courage to walk upon it together as friends.
