My Enemy's Enemy
This story begins with Jonathan living on a canal boat in Amsterdam, having dropped out following a personal and professional disaster.
Friends from 'The Organisation' want to help him rebuild his life and he is asked to rejoin to assist them in finding a colleague who has gone missing in Africa.
Jonathan soon finds himself embroiled in the middle of a plot for world domination by a major economic power, determined to destroy its adversaries and all who stand in their way.
Still Waters
A book full of short stories and poems. Some are sad, some are happy, some will make you think. These are stories written over the past ten years and they give me immense personal satisfaction.
Not everyone has the time or inclination to read a full length novel. Still Waters give you the opportunity to read and feel satisfied in just a few minutes.
People tell me that some of the stories would make a great first chapter to a novel. So watch this space!
A Higher Authority
A young Oxford graduate with a gift for languages joins MI5 and is then seconded to 'A Higher Authority'. An organisation funded through government sources from around the world which nobody would admit to. Countries have to be seen to be playing it straight, and sometimes can’t get at the bad guys. This is where ‘The Organisation’ comes in. Our hero is given the code name Jonathan to ‘avoid contagion’ and trained at an old British Army camp in Kenya where he meets and falls in love with his colleague Zan, a Chinese girl.
Catapulted into the world of industrial espionage their mission is to find out from the inside how a company has been able to grow at lightening speed. They find themselves embroiled in kidnapping, murder, drug running and money laundering.
