Blackmail is a detective story set in 1916 in Paris and the Western Front during the First World War. Agents from Germany, France and Great Britain are engaged in a web of blackmail that Captain Jamie Brown has to unravel in case the “Big Push” (the Somme offensive) is compromised and a royal sex scandal exposed.
Blackmail - A World War 1 thriller encompassing recognisable modern themes like kompromat, fake news, injudicial killing, gay rights and Royal scandals. Captain Jamie Brown must untangle the web of blackmail to protect the British Establishment and ensure the 'Big Push' against the enemy goes ahead.
Torres del Paine - A murder mystery involving a US Senator, set in the beautiful Torres del Paine National Park in Chile, and featuring an international cast of suspects with causes and grievances to promote.
An intriguing and imaginative plot set in the First World War. While I am not an expert in the period, the details had all the hallmarks of authenticity.
I look forward to reading the rest of the trilogy when it becomes available
