Sinossi

Winner of the Crimefest 2012 Goldsboro Last Laugh Award Billy Karlsson needs to get real. Literally. A hospital porter with a sideline in euthanasia, Billy is a character trapped in the purgatory of an abandoned novel. Deranged by logic, driven beyond sanity, Billy makes his final stand: if killing old people won't cut the mustard, the whole hospital will have to go up in flames. Only his creator can stop him now, the author who abandoned Billy to his half-life limbo, in which Billy schemes to do whatever it takes to get himself published, or be damned . . .

    “[An] engrossing blend of romance and gothic mystery. The suspense is well done in a fine story line with plenty of unpredictable twists and turns.” —Midwest Book Review 
     
    Damaris Gordon shuddered at the thought of working for the cruel and bitter Master of Blacktower—but her father’s death left her no choice. Suddenly her fate—her life itself—was in the black silk-gloved hands of Gavin Hamilton, a man scarred and tortured by an unspoken past, whose mocking laughter echoes through his ancient Scottish estate. Damaris has heard the whispers that accuse Gavin Hamilton of his wife’s death and his young daughter’s crippling injury. But the pain and sadness barely hidden behind his blazing dark stare touch Damaris deeply—and a courageous heart is luring her to the estate’s topmost tower in search of his dangerous secrets.

    A wry, hard‑bitten solicitor with a bad knee and a brave cocker spaniel walks into a bomb, a fake heiress, and a family conspiracy—then fights to get one real woman her life back. 
    I woke up with one brogue, a dog in my office, and a metal cigar case in my jacket that my gut said would remove me from the gene pool if I pressed the wrong button. That was the start of it. By the time the train reached the Cairngorms I'd got a dead woman on a bed that wasn’t the heiress, a fake identity stitched together like bad theatre, and a solicitor who’d decided law was only a suggestion. 
    I’m no detective. I’m a solicitor—an ex‑SAS man trying to learn how to do paperwork again. But paperwork doesn’t cover explosive devices, locked cellars, or the kind of men who buy other people’s silence. So I did the only sensible thing: I used the army part when the law wouldn’t do, and the law part when the violence was over. What I didn’t expect was for an heiress to stand in my jacket and tell me to sit down. That’s how you know a case is personal.

    'A cracking thriller with a Reacheresque hero you can't help but root for!' – John Ryder 
    ‘Wow, what a book, I loved it!! Rob Sinclair has an innate ability to draw you in and take you on an amazing ride, the character of agent Carl Logan is so authentic and Sinclair portrays him particularly well. All the characters in this story are well developed, the plot is fast paced, intriguing and totally entertaining. I really can't recommend this book highly enough.' – Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    ‘OMG ,OMG, OMG I was bouncing off the walls when I realised Carl Logan is back with a new identity in a brand new series. After being gutted when the Enemy series ended. Just in case you didn't know I am a massive fan... lol. But Rob Sinclair has pulled out all the punches with this latest story, it is without a doubt his best book yet….. I freaking loved it.’ – Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    ‘I would think Rob Sinclair might rival some of the greats in his field. His writing is tight, current and gripping. He weaves easily between settings and great characters –there appear to be quite a few. And the pace is compelling. This all leads on to a most excellent ending.’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    ‘Crikey The Red Cobra opens with an action packed scene and it pretty well doesn’t let up for the rest of the novel. Short chapters with cliffhanger endings add a breathless pace so that The Red Cobra is a really exciting read. I genuinely found it heart-thumpingly exciting and the events even pervaded my dreams at night! There’s quite a bit of violence but Rob Sinclair also knows less is more so he is a master of suggestion as well as description making for an elevated pulse rate in his readers. The Red Cobra is exciting, well written and absorbing – definitely a ‘can’t put it down thriller’. I loved it.’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    ‘The Red Cobra is one fast paced, action packed, thrill of a read. It is actually screaming out to be put on the big screen. Who needs Lara Croft when you have The Red Cobra? Without a doubt this is a fantastic start to a new series and I am literally counting the days down until the author quenches my thirst for more.’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    'This book is perfect for the fans of Robert Ludlum, Jim Grant and early James Patterson works.' – Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    ‘Brilliantly crafted high-octane thriller with echoes of Robert Ludlum’s infamous Bourne novels!’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
    ‘I can highly recommend this brilliant book by the master of action, Rob Sinclair.’– Goodreads reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
