Imagine being castaway on a remote uninhabited island. Only this is not some tropical paradise, but a bleak island in the north Atlantic. In February. And the castaway is Tess, a woman so timid and ineffectual that she’ll need a miracle to survive.
This exciting novel follows Tess’s desperate efforts, and those of Cal Fisher, the detective assigned to investigate her disappearance. It also follows Mike, the man who put Tess on the island, as he struggles to live with the demons of his past, and the horrors that they drive him to.
Abandoned is available from all online bookshops
“I think one of the biggest problems with the veterans coming back – myself included – is that you’re so used to that institutionalized way of life,” says Brock Horner, 25, a US Army veteran who served 15 months in Afghanistan with Chosen Company, 2nd Battalion Airborne, 503rd Infantry in Kabul Province. “You always have things set in stone and always have a set schedule that someone else makes for you. When you come home, a switch is turned off, and you don’t have that anymore. You have to do it all yourself, so it’s completely different and overwhelming.”

Lyrics:
High Noon
HOOK:
Just when you thought it was safe to play outside,
here comes the new kid on his big red bike
poppin wheelies
ackin all silly,
billy, i think this kid's lookin for a fight
(wild wild west)and the noon is high
Verse1:
Please for the sake of safety remember the alias
I am the epitomy of what you think that crazy is
while you're the equivalent of pussy a mercedes gets
20 on it, call me on it, on this table(place your bets)
I am not an arguer so you should probably save your breath
you are gonna need it when you're runnin like a lazy pet
see, i told you that
next time you'll listen but there's not a next imagine that
no one takes the minutes to find out that i am a cool cat
(i second that opinion)hey,jay(what)(shut up your ass)
they will never get it so i force it like abortion
on a poor kid who's family just knows they can't afford it
to live in this society with rovers and porches
their pinto's on 10s, wheels hot as 10 torches
to some it's a sin,
to some it's life choices
truth is(dum dum)
keep your minds open
(open up wide)
and listen to the veteran
life is shorter than my attention when I'm in netherlands
blowing hella dough on hella weed and hella hashish man
i feel like this is a holloween party for candy man
(i see dead people) I see, i see dead people
it's always a big honor when i talk to real people
instead of haters, fakers, occassional pansy ass
today marks a brand new era, my people raise up your glass
in the air(air)
taste it like the bread at mass
I'm a lighter
give a fuck who is a match
they on fire
as soon as i get a chance
firefighters are like...'nope, i ain't touchin that'
i approach ever future like, what's a past?
if you ain't learn from your mistakes?
(here's a common task)
take a rake
scrape it across your face
and you'll know what it's like for hell's gates to slam on your ass

/Intro
Allow me to just introduce myself, my name is..
(well...uhhh) K to the I D
and right now I am like what the sky be
higher than a cloud, much cooler than the sound of
a milli a milli, wired through 2 accounts
while i blew threw a philly, chicky rolls another round
whole life's been an adlib, now I'm in the foreground
four front, six back, feelin like the president
(sweet like) three swedish models as my deligates
never had a problem with you sellin that
to be totally honest, I'm a product of the celar rats
honored to watch em rise sky high without sellin packs
(though my boy crooklyn)taught me grab and then sell em back
(though he did, I) never been involved in the sell of crack,
pills go stupid, so do snow when I'm boardin that
slope, been weird, I don't live out of fear
I live out my tic tocs just switched in 6th gear
as i breeze to the pier, watch the waves crash sand
feels like I dream, but i see i am
me, and I'll never change that for no man
even if it means gain fame and a few more fans
i see staring at the ceiling like Outkast did
only seems to be a part of the muthafuckin plan
and i guess so was me being a veteran so....
allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is
(mister)K to the iddI
I got continents to conquer, so i ain't got the tiddyme
to riddyme with asinine rappers who ackin ice cold,
then they froze as i hold, and then pass the mic
(go!) we all been through it, that's just a fact of life
ask tootie, you would need to practice twice
or triple to get to the level I'm rappin right
now, multiply that number by 6y
and y stands for years,
equals, I
tears,
go 'head and drip them, cry
cause i never did,
just accepted what it is and
maintained focus like a rifle to a bear
seen the eifel out in pa/ris
watched steve piss on it, yeh
so disrespectful, careless
i feel like that one gray rabbit with the carrots
(mnnnaaaah) what's up doc? I'm fearless,
lawless,
the one that spin heads like ferris
what's a gun to a full blown terrorists?
(boom)
done with that bullshit, mail any response to www.suckthis
.com
done/
Crack a bottle
/Intro
(I feel like i wanna)crack a bottle right upside his fitted cap
swear to allah i'll do that the way i finish tracks
(super fast like)superman is in the building
look up higher than the ceiling
look up higher than your feelings when you're
eyeing me in VI/P, stands for puss ass(es)
ain't hangin round me, I'm the light if you get gassed(bitch)
nicca I am being sicka than these faggots slangin raps
cause I'm over em
(frozen to em)
I should probably thaw myself out to get closer to em
hop out like (ice)cube up in smoke
crack a bottle, right upside his fitted cap
til his dome is opened wider than a groupie's legs
my word giddame ain't the only way to get em wet
simple, pliddane a protege of the best and
sorry to say but that crown stays in the west
you say you great, i say must've been great legs
how you run off at the mouth and get chased with your fake ass, you
see me nigga, I'm a 100 never whinin
I'm a 100 with the grindin
you a 100 with a minus(-100)
a/ttached to it
feels just like I'm glidin, I'm on air(air)
right into your iris
(so you can see clear)
i know it ain't fair, but ah ha ha, na na I don't care
your biz is so gladis(night)
feels like slapboxin a bear
that ain't ate for half a year
and it's lovin it's steak rare
see? how I switch it, flip it, then sit it on my hair
L.A. on the brim until I'm.....
L.A. in my viddanes when I'm sittin in this chiddare when you stare
so please don't forget it or medics'll zip it up and say somebody
(cracked a bottle)right upside his
