No Lack of Madmen - you can never be too paranoid

About No Lack of Madmen - you can never be too paranoid

Former MP David Porter's third novel is set in an East Anglian care home for one-time MPS, Lords and senior civil servants, that boasts its own 'Commons Chamber' to relive their glory days. Prone to falls, James Ellington reluctantly moves in to satisfy his family and is at once immersed in a nightmare world of deluded, confused, decrepit shadows of their former selves. After attack from a mobility scooter and meat cleaver by a loopy fellow resident, he uncovers dastardly plans from the management (his former Parliamentary 'Honourable Friend') herding elderly people past their best. Deadly serious, yet rich in comic people, events and mishaps, the story comes from his Parliamentary experiences and the inevitable consequences of living so long. His novels, Old Men's Dreams and Detestable Things and short story anthologies Wild Beasts and Plague, Scoffers Will Come and The Scapegoat Keeper are available in paperback or Kindle.
