Tides & Tales: Where Imagination Meets Compassion
What do a wartime mystery, a thrilling espionage adventure, a touching romance, and a journey through time have in common?

Created by members of the Bridlington Veterans Coffee Morning Group, Tides & Tales is a unique collection of 11 original fictional short stories. Each author brings their own style, imagination, and life experience to the page, creating a book that is as varied as it is entertaining.

But this book is about more than great storytelling.
