Description

Concealed all around they watch through the eyes of others...perhaps a friend, lover or colleague? Looking into the eyes of pure unadulterated evil...what can you see? Will you know? A vision of demonic abominations staring back? An eternal war exists for the ultimate prize... They will come when least expected, from the last person you imagined...strike in a second... Look deeply into those blank lifeless eyes once more...no, you cannot see evil...it is already too late... You only see the next victim...a simple reflection in black hellfire...a disciple of evil has come for you. The dawn of a new Decade: With CCTV and DNA evidence in their infancy and the attacks of the 1980s gradually drifting into history and to the back of peoples' minds, London is returning to a peaceful normality. The intelligence services, working on the realisation that a new far right-wing terrorist organisation are on the rise in Europe, prepare an international conference in London to discuss next steps and to enhance working relationships. With senior police officers and agents continuing to disappear across the continent, leads and information seem confused and contradictory, the international function aimed at providing a clearer picture and set of common goals to combat the emerging threat. Further vicious attacks are planned on the capital by the far-right wing; their agents now seasoned professionals and mercenaries from around the world, the danger far greater than before as trained killers are dispatched to the streets of London. The killers can sense the opportunity, a chance of victory in the blood of the British. The Berlin wall has also fallen, encouraging disenchanted Special Forces from behind the old Iron Curtain to seek more profitable work, bolstering the ranks of the poisonous organisation. Now young policemen attached to the new Specialist Crimes Unit in Shepherds Bush, Robert Peterson and Jin-Lee return to the streets and darker subcultures of the capital. With a new brusque superior, their guile and luck will be stretched far more than before. The senior officer's own prestige seems ultimately more important than the welfare of his two investigators. Working closely with the Metropolitan Police and intelligence services, SCU will provide support and facilitate investigations in a rather specialist area, gaining information from a community that the police were unable to penetrate in the past, facing a wall of suspicious silence on each previous attempt. The last couple of years have also seen a dramatic rise in drug crime and an open war against the traffickers and suppliers...the department seems to have a busy...and dangerous future. Adventure into a murky and somewhat deviant dark emerging sub culture in London where nothing is as it seems and the humour is edged with innuendoes and energy. Meet some of the most flamboyant characters and experience lives 'on the edge' of society as one of the most unlikely detective duos team up in the fight against crime. SCU: Blood and Intoxication is the third of The Dorothy Squad Series with fictional characters depicting an age where HIV and Aids stalked the populace, many considering their hidden private lives as an addictive 'dance with death.' With DNA profiling and CCTV in their infancy, the investigators are unaware that a darker evil is at play and that an eternal supernatural battle may inevitably consume them all. The writer aims to provide a thoroughly enjoyable and imaginative reading experience at an affordable price for the reader. All three works from the author's World War 2 Series concentrating on the Battle for Stalingrad have achieved Best Seller status on Amazon in the UK and many more stories are outlined. Imagination is personal, free and to be cherished.

Author Biography:

As a boy, I used to write reports of the local football matches in my home town in northern Scotland, my favourite stories to write at the time being adventure and war and how the human condition adapts to the pressures of fate and unpredictability. Fascinated by history, I used to consume books at a frantic rate, reading personal accounts and historical works across all ages and becoming frustrated upon perusing articles that would compromise fact for common belief or to embellish a tale. My parents had always encouraged me to follow my interest, and this continued with my father occasionally enquiring if I had written anything, something I regret I had not done at the time. Although the pressures of buying property, running a business and having a career allowed me to develop plots and devise potential ideas for books, tales, twists of fate, etc. this was usually accomplished whilst sitting at traffic lights, awaking from a dream, waiting in a bar or the bane of my life, rush hour traffic. I did not realise at the time I was continually formulating stories in my mind, it was just an entertaining pastime to prevent boredom with the initial extracts of imagination then added to over time and usually when passing the same place. On long journeys, I would mentally start out with a plot and character, allowing that to grow and flourish in my mind...quite a useful diversion on say an eight hour car journey...by the time I reached the destination, a whole set of characters and actions had been formulated, sometimes even with terrain and weather. I would then write these whims down, unaware my sub-conscious seemed to be storing the colourful adventure, the key being the location I was at or even emotional state. A couple of years ago, my father unfortunately passed away and it was on the train to assist in the arrangements for the funeral that I considered what my father had encouraged me to do, the things he had been proud of that I had perhaps let slip. All the plots and stories began to pour back as I sat staring out into the French countryside, the silly twists that life throws at us, comical endings to situations and the 'itch I could never scratch', understanding fate's choices and the luck in life. I determined at that point that I would finally achieve what I had always dreamed of and write. At the end of the journey with the train pulling into Bezier...I had completed the first chapter of the first book, Bloody Iced Bullet.
