'To many Americans, the Kahn family were akin to royalty; such was their lavish lifestyle. The family epitomised everything the 1920s represented; wealth, extravagance, scandal, and jazz … so much jazz. Then came the 1929 Wall Street Crash; from that moment onward, everything changed forever.' Brighton Follies - A Stage Musical in Two Acts [publ. Nov. 2023]. The Clock Winder: a short story [publ. Dec 25, 2024].
