John Kite is lured into helping a criminal friend of his father – and what he discovers changes his life. Colleagues beg Kite to keep clear, but he can’t resist the criminal’s promise that he will learn new and startling facts from him. But how much of what he tells Kite is actually true? And why is he so deeply involved with a highly dangerous new technology? It’s not just stolen pictures which Kite is chasing, but also a mysterious redheaded woman, who appears to be enticing him to his death. What does she want, and is she part of the international conspiracy which Kite uncovers? A conspiracy which aims to turn industrial espionage into industrial destruction. Can Kite stop their desperate strategy before it is too late, and what shocking secrets does he finally learn?
The author calls his books 'feel-good thrillers'. They are a fast-moving mix of snappy dialogue, crime, quirky characters, chases, perky humour, and thrills, plus a bit of romance.
