The thing about the truth is; it doesn't get out much... Colin Jekyll is an 'Events Manager'. And a liar. Colin's real name is Frank Canon, and his real job title is 'Reality Enforcer'. And the lies don't stop there; they only get bigger. Canon works for the Agency, protecting the status quo. A multilingual lone wolf with an unreliable history and a fear of flying, Canon covers up continuity errors; those inexplicable events most other people call 'miracles'. He adjusts outbreaks of clairvoyance and drunken weather, weeping statues and spontaneous dancing plagues before they become common knowledge, and before people begin to panic, because people's faith in consensus reality needs to be enforced. Fortunately for Frank and the Agency, most people are naturally suspicious of the truth.
Autorenporträt
Simon Campbell was born in South East England but managed to escape as a child and went on the run for the next twenty odd years through Africa, the Middle East and Oz (the one down under, not the one over the rainbow). Following his deportation from Australia back to the UK he won a writing competition in The Independent, and realised that this was what he'd wanted to do with his life for as long as he could remember (unfortunately Simon has a terrible memory and so it's possible that he'd always wanted to be a fire engine). Simon met a girl, rescued a cat and started a family just a few miles from where he was made. He collects old comics, watches old films, reads old books and enjoys live music, scuba diving and ghostbusting. He is also a habitual liar and a fantasist; so his real hobbies are anyone's guess.
