About the Author
TALBOT TEMPLETON only took up writing after he retired from a very active working life, travelling numerous times on business around the globe. Since then he has written “Hot Sands, Cold Water”, a spy thriller, ”Alfonso, Figlio Mio “a case of a mix up of babies at a Maternity Hospital, and “Stories of Times Past” the reflections of an orphan, now an octogenarian helping a young school girl complete her term project. In his latest work ”Pennington House” he bids us to pause and reflect on that old age mystery of just where we are heading to when our allotted time is over. Always a deep thinker, he urges us to rise above the mundane in a rapidly changing world and focus on the eff ect we may have had on society and what will be the consequences of the space that will be left when we are gone.
