Michael Caleb Tasker’s grim and gripping Just Like the Night + Elisabeth Storr’s Fables and Lies   Lena has only really known a life of petty crime after spending her childhood on the road with her charismatic card sharp father Ray. Now in adulthood and just out of prison she finds herself in much deeper water, tangling with the dark Sydney underworld in an attempt to save her daughter. Michael Caleb Tasker’s first novel Just Like the Night delivers a gripping and gritty story with great literary style. + Historical fiction writer Elisabeth Storrs sets her new book Fables and Lies in World War 2 Germany.  The racy romantic thriller, about the Aryan myth, Nazi archaeology and the race to save the Trojan gold as Berlin falls, is based on a true story, and brings a little known aspect of the Nazi Regime to life.     Guests   Michael Caleb Tasker, author of “Just Like the Night”   Elisabeth Storrs, author of “Fables and Lies”   Author contacts   https://michaelcalebtasker.com/   @elisabethstorrsauthor   Books that get a mention   Michael Caleb Tasker recommends works by Raymond Chandler, particularly “The Long Goodbye” , and “Song of the Lark” by Willa Cather.
