Nick Harrieson's life takes an unexpected turn when he is accused of sexually harassing one of his female students. While awaiting the hearing of his case he decides to investigate some family history regarding his grandfather. Some of his discoveries are heartbreaking and some are astounding: his grandfather's terrible death as a prisoner of war, and his links to Ernest Hemingway which show the famous literary icon in a new and unflattering light. Through his research, Nick also embarks on a personal journey of love, self-exploration, and honesty. Life will never be the same once the truth comes out.
About the author:
Lawyer Dermot Ross has grown up and has spent the majority of his 67 years living in beautiful New Zealand, with a brief sojourn to London during his 20s. Although Hemingway's Goblet is Dermot's debut novel, he is no stranger to writing, having authored several book reviews for journals as well as articles which have been published in legal texts. He was also a founder shareholder in a well-regarded New Zealand literary magazine in the 90s. Influenced by his close network of friends - many of whom are published novelists - Dermot decided to embark on his own novel. Hemingway's Goblet showcases Dermot's knowledge and passion for the law, military history and, of course, the life and works of Ernest Hemingway.
