Nostalgia Man in Henley-on-Thames

This fictional novel is the first of a trilogy exploring memory. It follows Oliver Matthews' emotional and reflective journey unravelling the mysteries of his youth.

Oliver fell in love with three beautiful women during the late 1960s. Two left their mark on the man he became, but the third with Jenny was wildly intense. Yet he had no idea how it ended. All he could recall was leaving Henley-on-Thames, the town of his birth, with a sense of shame. His self-inflicted penance was to quit drinking, remain celibate, and dedicate himself to a police career, only to be plagued by a disturbing vision. Was it related to Jenny or something darker? The possibilities were driving him insane. There was only one way he could die in peace. After fifty-six years, he returns to investigate the probable cause.
