Virtual Tales to Publish New Irish Fiction by Jack Scoltock

(PRLEAP.COM) Virtual Tales, a publisher of eBooks and eSerials spanning a variety of fiction genres and styles, announced the acquisition of a new General Fiction title, "Golden Weddin’ and the B.V.M.," by renowned Irish author Jack Scoltock. Set in modern day Derry, Ireland, this is the story of a 50th wedding anniversary celebration gone awry, as seen through the eyes of their teenage granddaughter Kerry. While the fractious family plans the momentous celebration, Kerry is more interested in her apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary (B.V.M.). The B.V.M. told Kerry that she would appear again, and Kerry wants her friends to see this. But an unexpected guest at the party changes everything.

Jack Scoltock is Derry’s most published children’s writer. He was born in Derry, Ireland, in 1942 and has lived there all his life. "Golden Weddin’ and the B.V.M." is his second work for ePublisher Virtual Tales. His first Virtual Tales title, "First Communion: A Collection of Modern Irish Stories," is an anthology that gives readers a rare glimpse of everyday life in modern Northern Ireland, visiting the small towns and byways to see how everyday people live, love and thrive in the midst of religious and political strife. Like his "First Communion" anthology, "Golden Weddin’ and the B.V.M." is a departure from Jack’s mainstream children’s fiction writing, presenting adult themes as witnessed by youth, who must struggle to make sense of their situation.
