Purchase options and add-ons

A weekend in an ancient castle and a murder-mystery game that becomes all too real. It’s safe to say Josh’s plans for a romantic anniversary with George are not turning out the way he’d hoped.

In spite of his cynicism, and his promise not to embark on any more life-threatening pursuits for answers, when one of the guests turns up dead, Josh can’t help but put his talents to use to solve the murder.

The Advent of Reason is a (more or less) stand-alone novella-length character special in the Hiding Behind The Couch series.

* * * * *

For readers of the series, The Advent of Reason comes several months after Reunions (Season Seven) and immediately before Not My Christmas.

Debbie McGowan is an award-winning author of contemporary fiction that celebrates life, love and relationships in all their diversity. Since the publication in 2004 of her debut novel, Champagne—based on a stage show co-written and co-produced with her husband—she has published many further works—novels, short stories and novellas—including two ongoing series: Hiding Behind The Couch (a literary ‘soap opera’ centring on the lives of nine long-term friends) and Checking Him Out (LGBTQ romance). Debbie has been a finalist in both the Rainbow Awards and the Bisexual Book Awards, and in 2016, she won the Lambda Literary Award (Lammy) for her novel, When Skies Have Fallen: a British historical romance spanning twenty-three years, from the end of WWII to the decriminalisation of homosexuality in 1967. Through her independent publishing company, Debbie gives voices to other authors whose work would be deemed unprofitable by mainstream publishing houses.

    There's nothing like spending some time with old friends over Christmas, and Debbie McGowan's "Hiding Behind The Couch" books always give us a chance to spend some time with old friends and make new ones. There is a murder mystery in this one, but like all the books in the series, it is more of a character piece and as well as catching up with Josh and George, two of my favourite characters, we get to meet some new characters. The best of these is probably Cosgrove, the faithful family butler, who manages to be very traditional, and rather more contemporary at the same time. Debbie McGowan's cast are always interesting and believable and as ever the dialogue sparkles with wit. If you're looking for a jumping on point for the series, or if you are already one of HBTC''s many fans, The Advent of Reason is a gift that's not just for Christmas, but can be enjoyed all year round.
