My new novel The Ironstone Bible, a Romantic Mystery with a touch of the unknown, is now available from amazon.co.uk in Paperback and Kindle formats.
The Ironstone Bible – The Discovery of a Good Luck Charm Brings More Than Luck.
When Kali invites Leo to her remote cottage for some friendly company, she fails to mention one thing: the place is haunted.
After Leo senses the spirit for himself, Kali admits the omission and persuades him to help investigate the hauntings in the hope they can lay the ghost to rest.
But with Leo harbouring a secret of his own, what will be his fate when he finally realises what is at the heart of the strange affair?
SOCIAL MEDIA
I’ve been busy producing reels to promote The Ironstone Bible on Instagram and TikTok. Check them out at Martin Tuffs (@tuffsmartin) • Instagram photos and videos or tiktok.com/@martintuffsauthor. My favourite reel so far is the one with the slogan ‘A dark problem requires a darker solution’ written in blood red and to the soundtrack of Spellbound by Siouxsie and the Banshees.
IRONSTONE BIBLES – A REAL LIFE MYSTERY
The title ‘The Ironstone Bible’ comes from the artifact that is central to the story. Ironstone bibles are unique to the area of the North Yorkshire Moors where the highest grade of iron ore, magnetite, was mined. Why miners calved the jet black rock in the shape of a small book is not entirely clear. One theory is that the ‘bibles’ acted as good luck charms to ward off evil spirits and keep the miners safe. More information about these fascinating objects can be found at the Land of Iron Museum in Skinningrove.
I took a different view for my novel. Instead of repelling spirits, the little black books…well, read The Ironstone Bible to find out more.
