Description
March, 2018. Anticyclone Hartmut – better known as the Beast from the East – has brought Great Britain to its knees, with sub-zero temperatures and heavy snowfall. Paignton private investigator Joe Rey has other problems, however…
Rey has been offered a lucrative pay-day by Konstantin, a shadowy ex-KGB Directorate Chief, who wants him to retrieve a decades-old dirty bomb that was hidden in the nuclear bunker beneath Torquay Magistrate’s Court shortly before the end of the Cold War. To ensure his cooperation, Konstantin injects Rey with a nerve agent – the antidote to which is stashed in the same nuclear bunker.
With the clock ticking, Rey has no choice but to start messing with the kind of people who really don’t like to be messed with. But will he succeed, or will Torquay go up in smoke?
ONE MAN ARMY is an exclusive novelette from the author of BONEYARD DOGS, TEN PINTS OF BLOOD and SHARP KNIVES & LOUD GUNS.
