Beyond The Doors - Paperback

When the na?ve Jamie leaves his Scottish village for university in England, he thinks it will be a quiet time of study and perhaps a little socialising.

He doesn't expect to encounter gangland enforcers, corrupt military intelligence or fall in love with the first woman who smiles at him in a pub.

***

This story explores how criminals might sacrifice all ambitions for principle, while spooks sacrifice every legal principle for their ambitions.

Is a licence to exploit Scotland's oil worth killing for, who would be involved and how would an assassination be managed?

Could an American intelligence agency hide in plain sight as a benevolent corporation? Would its boss act only for her own profit?

Would the auditor of a nuclear submarine base, who is eager to make it seem accident-free, be coerced to make a report damning enough to close it down?

"A fascinating account of a time and characters I recall by different names and situations. This is not the usual gangster porn, but a humorous tale of love, violence, and redemption."

Mick Kelly.
