Damn Your Eyes...STOP!

A well-dressed young man makes his way into the Bald Faced Stag Inn, Putney Vale, London and books lodging for a few nights. With a wide smile and gracious pleasantries, he takes his key from the unsuspecting innkeeper. Little does the innkeeper know, this young man is about to embark on a journey that is, to say the least, defiant, unpleasant and often shocking. It soon becomes apparent that he’s not all that he appears to be. Damn your eyes...Stop! Tells the story of Lewis Jeremiah Avershaw, a notorious highwayman who terrorised travellers in the late 18th century. His short life was one of terror and violence that led to the inevitable conclusion...the gallows.

John was born in Aveley, Essex and was educated at his local comprehensive. After leaving school, he worked as a mechanical engineer, before making the transition to civil engineering. John is married, with a son and daughter, and is now retired which has given him the opportunity to fulfil a longstanding ambition to write a novel about a young London highwayman from the late 18th century, which he felt was a story that had to be shared.
