This book is a collage of unfiltered mishaps and memories of my life and my struggle for survival. I needed an outlet to rid myself of the intense anxiety I had buried inside of me. Writing this book provided me the outlet I needed so dearly. I needed to tell my story. I witnessed something spectacular early in my childhood and that event has changed my life. I am so very lucky to have received "The Gift". I invite you into my world for the next 82 pages. Some of the works can be disturbing, but this was necessary to witness the full effect and understand what I went through. Thank you.


Love & Peace to you.

David Williams

David Williams

David Williams was a writer best known for his crime-novel series featuring the banker Mark Treasure and police inspector DI Parry.

After serving as Naval Officer in the Second World War, Williams completed a History degree at St Johns College, Oxford before embarking on a career in advertising. He became a full-time fiction writer in 1978. Williams wrote twenty-three novels, seventeen of which were part of the Mark Treasure series of whodunnits which began with Unholy Writ (1976). His experience in both the Anglican Church and the advertising world informed and inspired his work throughout his career.

Two of Williams' books were shortlisted for the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger Award, and in 1988 he was elected to the Detection Club.
