Overview

Adam Southerly, a young man who only realises the extent of his father's depravity after his parents are killed in a coaching accident, always knew his father was a tyrant, but did not realise the extent of his evil. With the help of his loyal manservant, Martin, Adam spends several years trying to right all the wrongs of his father, but the task becomes overwhelming. Adam is only a man and one man can only do so much. There are so many people waiting for him to fail, calling him the spawn of the Devil. He takes a wrong turn himself and finds he has reason to doubt his own sanity. Finally, he lets down the very people he wanted to protect but as he tells Martin, sometimes the people you least expect let you down.

Author Information

Sylvie Gallimore is a mother and grandmother, originally from Bristol, England, who has written all her life but waited until in her late 60s to actually write the novel that everyone says they all have in them. The Poet's Trap had been an idea in her mind for many years--a collection of her poems in a book published in 1996 by Dorrance Publishing.co.inc of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (ISBN 0-8059-3330-1), had been the inspiration for The Poet's Trap. It was an incident as seen by several people, telling different viewpoints on the happening. The idea to combine poetry and a story, the two intertwining, has been a long time in her thoughts. Hopefully, the results are worth waiting for. The Poet's Trap was released in 2016 and The Southerly Curse (Before the Poet's Trap) was originally intended to be three extra novels, but as there were so many times in the characters' lives that it was necessary to repeat incidents, it was decided to make the three books into one; combining already written books was quite a challenge but, hopefully, successful.
