Felixstowe best-selling author Iain Maitland is best known for his psych thrillers, including The Perfect Husband which topped the Amazon charts at the end of 2022. He's now back with a new novel, published by Vellum Publishing in June, in a new genre.
The Old Man, His Dog & Their Longest Journey is a thought-provoking, contemporary novel about love, loss and self-discovery. Ian is struggling with redundancy and illness and the prospect of becoming a grandfather. A short walk to clear his mind turns into Ian's longest journey yet, physically and mentally. With his loyal dog, Bernard, Ian walks from Felixstowe Ferry in Suffolk, around the coast, to the cliffs at Hunstanton in Norfolk where he faces his final reckoning.
'An utterly compelling and intriguing story of a man, in late middle age, confronting his personal demons by walking out of his home one day without word, warning or explanation. Very funny in some places, unspeakably poignant and sad in others. A philosophical and moving tale for our times' Charlie Mortimer, Dear Lupin.
'A tender and thoughtful novel exploring the bond between man and man's best friend… sincere and evocative…' Michael Simkins, Actor & Author.
Iain says, "The Old Man, His Dog & Their Longest Journey is being published by Vellum Publishing and will be available to purchase through Amazon on June 9th 2023. We spent ages looking for a really good book festival that was running in June where we could launch the book – and I'm thrilled to say we are heading north to the Bradford Literary Festival."
Iain Maitland is available for interviews and events. 'A brilliant speaker … Iain is open and frank and his moving account endears him to his audience straightaway' Stem4. 'Marx Brothers on speed' Douglas Skelton, Author. 'Iain Maitland … A hilarious and, frankly, show stealing turn in a panel at last year's Bloody Scotland book festival' Suze Review.
