  The first in a BRAND NEW action thriller series from the Wilbur Smith Prize-Shortlisted author Alex Shaw.Perfect for fans of Tom Wood, Vince Flynn and Mark Greaney, this is an explosive action thriller you won’t be able to put down 💥📚 
  ‘Another excellent stripped-back, razor-edge thriller from Alex Shaw’ - New York Times bestselling author James Swallow 
  Killing for a living is easy, living for a reason is much harder 
  Meet Ruslan Akulov. 
  In the shadowy world of assassins for hire, he is known as ‘Wolf Six’. 
  A Ukrainian raised in Moscow, conscripted into Russia’s most covert Special Forces unit ‘The Werewolves’, Akulov is full of loathing for the country that built and then broke him. The only rules he follows now are his own. 
  Unable to shake the guilt of his past, Akulov has made it his business to seek out those who prey upon the innocent. The name Wolf Six is legendary - whispered by those who know it with fear. But when Akulov accidentally thwarts the armed robbery of a Chicago Bank, he pits himself against both the Russian Bratva and the CIA, setting into motion a spiralling sequence of events which will bring his past back to haunt him, and potentially turn his future to ashes… 
  His mission of retribution takes him from Chicago to Kyiv, to Havana and back into the US, where Akulov must stop at nothing if he is to remain alive. No simple mission, even for the world’s deadliest assassin. 
  Praise for Wolf Six: 
  'Wolf Six is a gritty, action packed adrenaline rush! A deadly start to a new series!' Alan McDermott 
  'A master of the violent, jet-propelled international thriller which at times make Jason Bourne look like the innocent plus-one on a SAGA cruise.' Mike Ripley 
  'An action-packed page-turner, rounded out with doses of realpolitik and melancholy for what can be lost. I was gripped' Antony Johnston 
  'Wolf Six is a stunning piece of work. No-one builds tension like Alex Shaw. In the field of high-stakes international intrigue, Shaw knows his stuff and is at the top of his game.' Humphrey Hawksley 
  'Wolf Six keeps you raving for Akulov to escape the most harrowing situations and come out at the top when all odds are stacked against him. It’s bold, strong, and unforgiving in its violent nature and an unnerving mission to entertain you.' Kashif Hussain - Best Thriller Books

  When Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson only by chance escape an arson attack at the Waldorf Hotel, they are glad to have found new lodgings in the apartment of Hampton Bank. Director Benjamin Hampton, who still feels indebted to Holmes, is pleased that both are now apparently safe from the long arm of retribution by the New York Police. For precisely this reason, he confronts Holmes with a case requiring special care: a secret banking meeting in the state of Georgia was supposed to remain secret. But when one of the participants doesn't return to New York, that plan fails, and Hampton sets his tenants Holmes and Watson on the case. Once again, no 'vacation in America' for the two friends from London...

  SO WHAT DOES..... 
  ·  A medicated Art Gallery Registrar, 
  ·  His cantankerous ex-barfly Mother, 
  ·  Random hallucinations, 
  ·  A larger than life, boss from Hell, 
  ·  A bemused, gun happy Detective, 
  ·  An Art Insurance Agent suffering from melancholia, 
  ·  A French Nun from Aix en Provence, 
  ·  Newspaper heiress Patty Hearst, 
  ·  A virtually unknown French painting from 1886, 
  ·  A black cat, a talking dog, a distraught goldfish, 
  ·  And a mummified canary all have in common? 
    They all come to life in the EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. Except the canary. 
  A quirky psychological thriller cocktail with a splash of the Arts, a twist of noir, and a jigger of aberration. 
   Obsession, betrayal, and redemption collide in the Tatum Art Museum and the Victorian home of our protagonist in San Francisco, California. William Frye, the museum's Registrar and a Gulf War Veteran with mood disorders, discovers something that turns his world upside down. As he becomes increasingly obsessed, those around him must also face their own struggles and secrets as they navigate the turbulent aftermath of a missing oil painting that is one step beyond. 
  Crisp dialog brings to life the introspect of a famished soul and it's redemption. Each of the ensemble of characters are woven together in this tightly-written novella. All have their own idiosyncratic story to tell. Each of our five characters is trying to stay afloat to keep their nose above the water line. How they see themselves and each other of course, is all in the eye of the beholder.
