Harry Thompson

Harry was born in Glasgow in 1958 and did not take to education, preferring to leave school as soon as possible and start work age 16. After turning 60 and entering lockdown he used the down time to write Malky's Millions, which had been in his head for many years. The story is about Malky, who always skirted the edge of legitimacy when making money. Just when his fortunes turned upside-down the chance of millions dropped into his lap literally. Jamie bought a lottery ticket every single week - and to ensure no one could submit it he wrote his name and address on the back. One night his ticket disappears. Was it a winner? Was it just another loser? A mystery phone call reveals all may not be lost.
