    About this ebook

    A South Londoner born and bred, now a retired Civil Servant, A HOST OF FEMALES is Dave Shonfield’s first venture into the genre of the short story, after his three novels --- The Stakeholders, The Coincidence of the Palm House Murder and The Games People Play.

    The stories written over a period of twenty years comprise of women from different social backgrounds in diverse situations ranging from the vivacious, sexy Eve killed tragically at a young age, to an author’s eponymous heroine and a long-distance lorry driver stuck with her triplets in a high rise overlooking Hammersmith Fly-Over.

    They are intended to entertain, especially commuters, on their long journeys to and from work. So relax, sit back and immerse yourselves in the ways of the female psyche.

    Dave Shonfield

    A South Londoner born and bred, now a retired Civil Servant, Olympic Times is Dave Shonfield’s 3rd novel.
