Sinopsis

The ideas and inspiration for these stories are as many and as varied as each of the individual tales. 
They do not contain standard stories of theft, greed and wrongdoings, as one might expect.
 
Far from it.
 
 Tales of Crimes & Violence looks deeper into the human psyche, the mind and spirits of those involved.
 
Although all the tales in these books are about committing crime, or being involved in acts of violence, the real story being told is one of the people involved; why and how they came to be in this position.
 
Are they willing participants, or victims themselves? The innocent caught in the crossfire, or is there more to their presence than meets the eye?
 
All the stories in Tales Crime & Violence have underlying factors, deeper meanings, twists and stings to savour and enjoy.

    Prequel to the Elioud Legacy series 
    She was trained to follow orders. She chose her conscience instead. 
    Berlin, 2011—The War on Terror is ten years’ old and shows no signs of abating. While on a high-stakes operation to unearth a terrorist cell on the verge of a devastating attack, newly minted CIA officer Olivia Markham spots a young woman being harassed by a group of immigrants. Unable to stop herself, she intervenes. For better or worse, her actions affect the mission objective. The instincts that made Olivia a stellar CIA recruit threaten her ability to work in the field. 
    But Olivia’s instincts won’t be denied. 
    Even as she faces opposition within the CIA, Olivia meets two other operatives from other agencies whose instincts match her own: Captain Alžběta Czerná of Czech military intelligence and Anastasia Fiore of Italian foreign intelligence. Yet each action outside the wire risks her future at the CIA. As what’s right becomes lost in the fog, Olivia must balance her official and unsanctioned covert activities. Until the dangerous mission that forces her to write her own operational protocol. 
    Set two and half years before THE ELIOUD LEGACY series, THE HARLEQUIN PROTOCOL tells the story of Olivia Markham’s transition from trained field operative to unsanctioned guardian. 
    "If I loved Olivia before, I am insanely mad about her after this. She is a superb character." -- Ted Fichtl, Col. USA (retired)

    Listener note: This audiobook follows on from the novel Where Death Meets the Devil and the novella Bargaining with the Devil. It contains the stories When the Devil Drives and At Death's Door.Work-life balance for a spy may be an oxymoron, but Jack Reardon likes a good challenge, and he's almost bested this one! He's settled into his Meta-State promotion as a field leader and into his new team with a second he can trust. Shop in order, Jack can take a day or two off when Ethan blows into town, their bargain finally starting to pay off.Assassin Ethan Blade has few pleasures in his life—a decent cup of tea, a job well done, racing his fleet of supercars, and Jack. With plans to combine the last two into one thrilling weekend, Ethan's attempt at having a normal, happy life may deliver everything he's ever desired; or backfire spectacularly. Jack and Ethan made a bargain, but the deal is thrown into jeopardy when the expectations and identities of the dealmakers shift; stoking the fires of doubt and jealousy. Not to mention a contract killer out for revenge and an illness that threatens to reveal closely guarded secrets.Rewards are on the table for both men, maybe bigger than they even realize, if only they can renegotiate and survive.
