Castleford & Pontefract Express and Wakefield Express featured John Laycock’s book, The Lothario. The feature was titled ‘New Book from Castleford Author.’ The feature included the author’s picture on top with the description: ‘John Laycock writes about a con-man who uses charm to prey on rich women.’ The brief feature article puts a stamp on John Laycock’s book to be worth reading.

John Laycock is a proud Yorkshire man and has been an electrical engineer all these years; a profession least related to writing. The Lothario is John’s adventure novel and the first to be published in print. It revolves around an interesting character, Peter Holmes, who is always in control and does things the way he likes. His life is all about cruise ship travels and rich women. The book makes for a perfect light read, with humour and easiness that go well with the author’s personality.
