The Fragile Coast: Cameron Kyle 2
It's 1971, the Cold War is still chilly, and ex-Detective Sergeant Cameron Kyle returns from an aborted trip abroad to discover that his solo rescue of a coach load of tourists from a terrifying terrorist attack has been closely monitored by MI6.

Not only are the spooks fully aware of his Giza heroics, his dire medical condition, his Welsh misadventures and his involvement in disposing of a high-profile Italian extortionist, but they also break the unexpected news that his partner-in-crime, the rather attractive ex-copper Jude Bates, has been released from prison following her successful appeal and retrial.

Kyle listens in amazement as his visitor from the Intelligence Service reveals that Bates has recently been employed by a French magazine's news team, but then drops the bombshell that she has mysteriously disappeared while investigating a suspected Russian plot to salvage a deadly warhead lost on the Spanish seabed following the mid-air collision of two US aircraft five years previously.

Will Kyle agree to a short-term contract? (All expenses paid, naturally...)

Sure, he could still die anytime, but the spooks don't care.

In fact, they think he's an ideal fit for the job. After all, what does he have to lose?

The Fragile Coast is number two in the Cameron Kyle series.

What readers are saying about The Fragile Cage:

★★★★★ '...a pell-mell flurry of unpredictable action laced with acerbic humor. The Fragile Cage is paced to perfection and makes for a sunny (it that's the right word for a noirish book) one-sitting read.'

★★★★★ 'The author's style matches the uncaring, tart unpredictability of his hero, a style that is perfectly pitched. A wonderful one-sitting read.'

★★★★★ ...'smart, action-packed and a likeable main character.'

Author's note:

How does this sound? A journey back in time to an era of no mobile phones, no internet, no 24/7, no political correctness and great music ... oh, and page-turning action and excitement too ...

Come on, that's just irresistible, right?
