Aprašymas

The first of the John Mordred novels!

"Readers will find John Mordred to be one of the most appealing characters in fiction today." - Publisher's Daily.

"John Mordred comes alive on the page and is a character readers will not soon forget." - The Booklife Review.

According to those paid to assess such things, John Mordred is temperamentally unsuited to a career in MI7. He's awkward, reckless and a self-confessed loner. Yet frustratingly for his bosses, he's also an outstanding linguist and detective.

Since he's only 28, he can probably be moulded.

And what better way to achieve that than by sending him overseas on a crucial mission in hostile territory? Accompanied by five senior agents, with permission to slap him down whenever necessary? Spying can be a cruel business, and it's high time John learned that.

But once everything's in place, the plan gradually unravels. John's MI7 mentors start disappearing. And to make matters worse, their mission begins to shape-change fast.

Unfortunately, this is the far side of the world. John and his colleagues aren't even supposed to be there. And since they're now cut off from base, they may have no exit.

Suddenly, his two chief skills become the team's most precious assets. Putting him in charge may be in everyone's best interests.

More, it could be their only hope.

"James Ward brings protagonist John Mordred alive on the page ... The author displays exceptional ability when it comes to storytelling." - Emerald Book Review.

The Eastern Ukraine Question was written in 2014, at the same time as the events which form its backdrop.
