SUMMARY:Saturday Signing – Come and Meet Author Paul Aldridge
DESCRIPTION:Come and meet author Paul Aldridge\, who will be signing copies of his book\, The Tightrope Club. \nHow far would you go for something you crave? \nWelcome to ‘The Tightrope Club’. Michael makes a grave error. Beaten down by his addiction\, an untimely confession sees his world come crashing down. With nowhere left to turn\, he forms a secretive brotherhood and rallies himself to help others wrestle with their own addictions. Mysterious souls\, disrupt his good intentions and force him to take matters into his own righteous hands. Now in too deep\, his relentless pursuit of the truth takes him to places he may never escape from. Left with difficult choices\, he may have to sacrifice himself to save others\, and hopefully still find a path back towards redemption. \nAlthough previously an author of children’s books\, this is Paul’s first foray into fiction. A unique storyteller\, whether that is writing rhythming picture books or now tales of redemption\, he delivers a descriptive\, inspiring and thought-provoking form of writing to entertain the reader.
