The Spy Who Couldn't Count

Michael N. Wilton

Summary

Spies like Jyp are hard to find.
 
Inflicting Christian names like Jefferson Youll on a young lad already saddled with a surname like Patbottom is a sufficient handicap for anyone, but if you have the misfortune to be educated at Watlington County Grammar and end up as thick as a plank, life gets very tricky indeed.
 
Settling for Jyp and braving a succession of dead-end jobs, he finds sanctuary in a Government statistics department dealing with figures. To escape the amorous attention of his ever-helpful colleague, Jyp dives into another office, where he is mistaken for a trained spy killer and recruited by one of Britain’s security departments.
 
Bumbling, he takes on a fight to unmask a series of trusted spies in the heart of Whitehall in a desperate battle to win the hand of his true love.

Taking justice into your own hands can be deadly...

But as Amelia tells Zane about her murdered brother’s activities and her own ties to the mafia world, they’re called into work.

Driven to settle a score and dictate their own brand of justice, the killers aren’t finished yet. As Amelia soon learns, they have a score to settle...and one of the Bureau’s own is next. 
From the wickedly dark minds of Mary Stone and Amy Wilson comes Storm’s Justice, book seven of the Amelia Storm Series. Be careful who you aggravate. They may take justice into their own hands.

Seeing an opportunity to attract 800 new jobs, Julia jumps into spearheading a persuasive campaign to win the contract. A roundabout is hastily renamed in honour of Angela Merkel; a German school is quickly established under the leadership of a ten-year-old boy and three elderly pensioners; and the town swimming pool is rapidly transformed into a beerhouse – it had been empty for years anyway! 
Julia’s get-up-and-go impresses the German boss … but has she made herself a tricky bed to lie in?
