Ushanka

There’s a killer on the loose in Dagestan, near the Caspian Sea. His purpose in life is ‘to Kill and to die In the name of Allah’. He’s an Arab Muslim wanted for bombing, murdering, and changing the face of the world in which we live. His motive is revenge. His ability is beyond understanding. The murder count continues to rise.

To some, the fugitive is a Godsend. A secret weapon that one side wants to harness in the war against the enemy. Who will turn a blind eye to the terrorist’s past? Or will they chase the fanatic and end the slaughter? One day he’s an assassin, then he is a peacemaker. His next destination is to an unknown killing spree. But then along comes an Arab Jew from the past who knows who the next target is. It’s his bargaining chip to a life beyond the world of spies. Who will believe the Arab Jew? Or will they favour the Muslim extremist? The question of who has the most influence is under review. Whoever wins will be all supreme. Is power decided on the roll of a dice?

When Boyd, the UK’s top detective, is called in to sort out the mess that has been created, who will the powers-that-be believe in the final analysis? A worn-out ageing detective who has seen better days and whose credibility is in question, or an Arab Jew with a history of making mistakes? The clock is ticking. Is there a bomb ticking too? The tip-off is there for all to see. People died to pass it on. Some were murdered. Is the next target the British Prime Minister or the Russian Ambassador? Or someone else? It’s down to the spymasters to work it all out, and a man designated USHANKA.

Pre-Publication Review: The author sets out the tablecloth and invites you to a picnic by laying down elements of the storyline and then the plot as the work progresses. A great read, plenty of action and intrigue all the way through with a blistering finish that might surprise you.

Another five star read from Paul Anthony… Jacoob Abraham…
