A thriller of style, wit and page-turning tension; Charlie Gauntlet, a retired lawyer who was 'something dodgy in the Foreign Office' is recently married to the much younger Rebecca 'Bex' Olesker, a Detective Sergeant in the Metropolitan Police's Anti-Terrorist Branch. Charlie has more or less come to terms with Bex's demanding and dangerous job, though it's hard for him to stay at home when his young wife is on the front line. Especially when she is facing the mysterious and deadly international assassin known only as Alchemist. She may find him, but will she survive the encounter?
