John Hunter is an intelligence officer with the British Secret Intelligence Service, MI6. No longer on active operations, he monitors risks of nuclear proliferation, but an alarming new threat emerges which propels him back into an operational role. The Raven, an amoral arms dealer in Pakistan, is planning his most audacious deal yet and Hunter's expertise is required. But the response to personal tragedy on both sides complicates attempts to avert a major terrorist catastrophe. Hunter seeks the truth within a labyrinth of deceit, and the murky trail leads him from his quiet life in Kent to the teeming metropolis of Karachi and the deserts of Baluchistan. The Raven simply seeks bloody revenge. The clash of personal and political motives culminates in a shocking denouement. Much of the story’ Trevor Gibbons has worked as a research scientist, university lecturer, management consultant and IT manager in an oil company. He has travelled widely, including overland from Saudi Arabia to Nepal, and spent much of his career abroad, including Canada, Ireland, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. He is currently a Senior Visiting Fellow at the London School of Economics. PUBLICATION DATE 1st July 2013 eISBN: 9781783069859 Price: £2.99 End
