You (Desmond) are woken in your hotel room by the bedside phone ringing at 2 a.m. A damsel in distress is calling you from the room immediately above. She begs you to come and rescue her at once as two men are about to attack her.The damsel, who is young, blonde and beautiful, explains that she is an MI5 agent and her assailants (who are identical twins) are employees of a foreign power in search of a mysterious brief case, known as 'The McGonagall.'You suddenly find yourself in dangerous world full of spies, threats, glamour and betrayal. You are knocked senseless in a Soho nightclub and wake up in a rat- infested cellar. You are threatened with torture by the twins but rescued by a retired Colonel. After a number of other adventures, including a boxing match with dogs, everyone gets decorations and Frank, the writer, rewards you and your damsel with a glamorous society wedding and a working honeymoon on the Moon. As the plot develops, you keep complaining to the writer about the way you are treated. The Readers Group also give the writer a hard time with their critical comments.Night Bell is a hilarious metafictional spy adventure in which 'you' play the leading role!
Most people pay the bills, put food on the table and take the occasional holiday with the proceeds of paid work that they don't really enjoy.However, there have probably been times in your life, albeit short and fleeting, when you were engaged on a project or carrying out a set of actions or involved in an activity and you said to yourself, 'I think this is me - it feels as though this is what I was made to do'. You might even have said, 'I'm in my element'.Was God behind those moments of epiphany, when you sensed the 'rightness', the 'fit' or the 'timeliness' of what you were doing? Were they clues, pointing to the good works He has prepared for you, that He wants you to enjoy?We are more important to Him than we know; He has more invested in us than we can imagine; and He has given each of us a unique combination of capabilities for a reason... He has SOMETHING FOR YOU TO DO."e;I think this is superbly justified, theologically sound, pastorally necessary and compellingly written. I would certainly endorse it enthusiastically."e; - SIMON PONSONBY, PASTOR OF THEOLOGY, ST. ALDATES, OXFORD"e;Iain offers us perspectives on living purposefully in the sight of God in ways that maximise human potential, enrich the common good and value the gifts and opportunities bestowed on all people. This is a work based on personal experience and healthy thinking."e; - DR. NIGEL G WRIGHT, PRINCIPAL EMERITUS, SPURGEON'S COLLEGE, LONDON (FORMER PRESIDENT, BAPTIST UNION OF GREAT BRITAIN)
