Kismet - Synopsis:

For Billy Evans, the past was a haunted place that left an indelible imprint on the here and now. As he struggles to piece his life together he finds himself drawn back into a world of violence and terror.

Already emotionally struggling with the passing over of his remaining family, a chance encounter further clouds the border between reality, perception and illusion.

He has spent his life struggling to escape his past but now with memories triggered, he finds himself with no option but to begin an emotive quest for revenge, retribution and finally redemption.

General Background

The Pegasus Elliot MacKenzie Ltd publishing house has established roots in the historic City of Cambridge. Over many past years it has produced the books of gifted authors from all over the UK and world-wide.

Who We Publish.

Currently, much of the book publishing by larger publishers only relates to established writers and those with celebrity status whereas Pegasus, whilst accounting for the effects of this trend, also produces the work of first-time authors.

Being an independent, traditional publisher specialising in quality literature and non-fiction books, the Company numbers amongst its authors those with diverse and excitingly new talents which Pegasus is dedicated to encouraging and promoting.

Our publishing house concentrates - for adult and child readers - on the best fiction created by authors from many different parts of the world. They often contribute fascinating details with their diverse talents and use material and experiences from their unusual, exciting backgrounds.
