ABOUT LEE KERR
This is Lee’s third book and one of his ten bright ideas to be published by 2020.
He lives in London and works full time. You might spot him one day tapping away on his next big story in a coffee shop somewhere. If you see him you should say hello as he doesn’t have many fans. You can see what he looks like and learn more about his work at www.leekerr.net. He’s a bit of a dreamer, sometimes funny, but not when he laughs at his own jokes. He’s got this crazy idea that we’re all chasing something – a dream, a career, money, love, or just a better tomorrow. Do you think he’s right?

‘QUEUES LIKELY’
Meet Ryan, the guy who has it all – the body, the girls, and the perfect pad in Canary Wharf. His career at Global United Eradication is flawless, as he helps them in their quest to sanitise the entire planet.
He’s climbing his way up that golden ladder and doesn’t care about the lives or the past stories of those around him. He’s playing to win; competing against a shadow set by his father, and trying to please his ever-demanding boss. Even when he struggles through his daily routine, fighting against endless traffic and tube delays, he thinks only about his future. And with the help of his crazy friend, Ken, they plan to break as many of the company rules as needed to beat that long corporate queue to the top.
But as his boss’s demands become more sinister, Ryan finds out that the past he had no interest in is very much alive. As he uncovers a darker part of Global United Eradication, those who gave him his lifestyle ask for too much in return, and he realises that he must put things right and help the people he previously climbed all over. With no one around him that he can trust and time running out, he learns that having it all can still mean you have nothing.

‘CHASING 30’
Of all the things you could chase, what would it be?
As Josh celebrates his twenty-ninth birthday, his closest friend gives him a ring with a simple inscription: Chasing 30. It’s supposed to be a message to tell Josh to chase something more than his talented career, to stop running from his past, and to embrace the world he has hidden on the edge of for so long. It’s a plea that asks Josh to accept his sexuality and to recognise their friendship for what it could be.
But Josh refuses to admit any feelings, as he slowly pushes everyone away in favour of quietly struggling with the ideas of being a good gay, an honest son, and a real friend. He soon finds his world shattered by bizarre encounters, small adventures and interfering people, as he wakes up to see his friends have silently fought against life’s complications, addictions, depression and unspoken love.
When he finally makes a stand against his grinding existence, he enters into a race against time to help his friends, and to find the courage to admit an unspoken true love for the best friend he never wanted to lose.
