Followers of my Facebook page have privy to a fair bit of content that never made it to the main blog, notably a gallery of photos that showcase the main settings for The Only Genuine Jones. However, as the ebook launch is now only days away I thought it only fair that visitors to the main website should also be included. The photos on this page were taken by me over the last few years on my travels, and give a glimpse into the world of my characters–a world of stunning natural beauty, but also of danger and adversity. Enjoy!
