About the books
For the last time
Jake Robinsons is an ex-military policeman,
a captain with training at Sandhurst and a dergee in
psychology. He is a leader and a loner. He has resigned from
the special unit of MI5 and now needs a job. Jan Lotuse, star
of film, stage, dancing and singing, needs a bodyguard. Jake
gets the job,but when she is killed under his watch he realises
he has to kill the killers before they kill him – or a second
contract kicks in…
Kill or be Killed
Alan is serving the last few week of a life
sentence for murder. As he looks back on his life he assesses
his path with a clear head and shows how much ‘time’ he has
wasted, the decisions he has made and what punishment he
has received – not necessarily from the authorities, but more
from a vantage of older age and regret.
