Daisy's Chain is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption set against the exotic backdrop of Spain's Costa del Sol. Former East End gangster John Baltimore has traded a life of crime for a quiet existence, only to be drawn back into danger by his ambitious and rebellious daughter, Daisy. After a surprise late-life marriage to his housekeeper, Terri, John becomes a father for the first time. Though he adores Daisy, his business commitments keep him distant, leaving her craving his approval.
As Daisy matures, she takes control of John's enterprises, only to spiral into increasingly reckless behaviour. Her actions ignite a violent retaliation that shatters their family, leaving John dead and Terri gravely injured. With her life hanging by a thread, Daisy faces a choice: continue down a dark path or find redemption. Terri, determined to teach her a lesson, forces Daisy into an unlikely venture-renovating an old church to shelter refugee mothers and children. To her surprise, Daisy discovers purpose and love, setting the stage for a transformative journey.
Full of intrigue, familial conflict, and second chances, Daisy's Chain explores the complexities of loyalty, ambition, and the enduring power of love.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Owen Jones, Amazon Best-Selling author from Barry, Wales, has lived in several countries and travelled in many more. While studying Russian in the USSR in the `70`s, he hobnobbed with spies on a regular basis. After university, in Suriname, he got caught up in the 1982 coup, when he was accused of being a mercenary.
Later, while a company director, he joined the crew of four as the galley slave to sail from Barry to Gibraltar on a home-made concrete yacht during Desert Storm. En voyage, the yacht was almost rammed by a Russian oil tanker, and an American aircraft carrier - The Atlantic Challenger.
Since 2004, he has lived mainly in the UK, Spain and Thailand. He now leads a somewhat quieter life in his wife`s remote, northern farming village writing, editing and increasing the number of translations, and narrations of his novels.
As he says: "Born in the Land of Song, living in the Land of Smiles".
