My new novel:
The Aberdeen skies are under attack from an enemy jet. It is spilling a strange yellow smoke. Minutes later, people start killing each other.
Former Royal Air Force Regiment Gunner Jason Harper witnesses this and then his wife, Pippa, telephones him, shouting that she needs him. They then get cut off. He sets straight out, unprepared for the nightmare that unfolds during his journey. Everyone seems to want to kill him.
Along the way, he pairs up with fellow survivor Imogen. But she enjoys killing the living dead far too much. Will she kill Jason in her blood thirst? Or will she hinder his journey through this zombie filled dystopian landscape to find his pregnant wife?
The Fence is the first in this series of post-apocalyptic military survival thrillers from the torturous mind of local horror and science fiction novel writer C.G. Buswell.

Visitors can hear world-class musicianship and enjoy award-winning delicacies during family friendly events. These include renowned Scots fiddler Paul Anderson and Ian Murray on a guided ramble through the spectacular countryside on October 18, punctuating the walk with bursts of traditional Scottish music before ending with a meal at the Station Restaurant. Elsewhere, star of BBC's The Voice, Fiona Kelly, will appear at Banchory Lodge Hotel on October 5, and the New Distillery Ceilidh Band will host an evening in Tarland's MacRobert Hall on October 18.
Braemar Castle will host a craft gin tasting in association with the Deeside Drinks Emporium on October 10, which will be soundtracked by a number of top local folk musicians. Local music will also be prevalent at Finzean Farm Shop's three course buffet supper on October 9, which will prominently feature local venison. Buchanan's Bistro will also host a number of events which marry food with traditional music throughout the festival.
Even more food and music events will take place through the entirety of the Food and Fiddle Fortnight, while the more adventurous visitor can partake in a Land Rover Safari through Glentanar Estate on October 19. Throughout the festival visitors will also be able to "meet the makers" and learn how local arts, crafts and foods are made, sample the area's most mouth-watering local produce and enjoy a Sunday lunch with some traditional North East music.

Have you seen my beautiful golden retriever Lynne out and about in Aberdeen? Ask her for a high-five! She's a Bravehound PTSD assistance dog, so we'll often be in shops, restaurants, and the cinema together.
We've written a book where I talk about growing up in Aberdeen and then joining the army to be a medic and nurse, and developing military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
I also talk about losing my son to suicide and the therapy I have had at Royal Cornhill Hospital and grief support groups in Aberdeen.
The author, Damien Lewis, said of Lynne:
"A powerful account of what one dog means to one man on his road to recovery. Both heart-warming and life-affirming. Bravo Chris and Lynne. Bravo Bravehound."

An army veteran moves his family back to his Aberdeenshire home, but his nightmare neighbour starts a battle of wits with him. Who will win this One Last War?
