The Packet

by Neil Williamson

A voyage of discovery.
A voyage of deception.
A tale of heroism.
A tale of rebellion.
A fight for freedom that leads Charlie Fintry from a treacherous crossing of the ocean to an even more treacherous crossing to the stars.

Widowed and jobless following the Great War, Charlie Fintry books passage on a packet steamer heading for America. As he boards the ship, a bystander presses a packet into his hands and wishes him luck. Once under way, he realises that he’s going to need it given the travelling conditions, weather and the abusive crew. Opening the packet, Charlie discovers a scarf impregnated with a particular scent, an olfactory key that awakens him to a whole new reality…

An adventure wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma... A stunning novella from a master story teller.

The Packet is available as a paperback, an ebook, and as a special hardback edition signed by the author and limited to just 75 numbered copies.
