A stolen painting becomes a potential weapon of mass destruction.
A gangster is so desperate to own a portrait of an unknown person by a forgotten artist that he kills three men. In this fast-moving crime thriller ex-cop John Kite follows the trail of blood to a gallery full of looted Middle Eastern archaeology then discovers that a renegade spy is planning revolution.
Art detective Kite is a sexy tough guy - an ex-firearms specialist who "looks like a young Bryan Ferry" and runs elite Marathon times. His perky sense of humour brings sparky dialogue but his dead parents are a no-go area and his hidden past makes him a marked man.
Can Kite stop the impending cataclysm before he falls victim to the killer himself?
‘I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed it. A treat. I’m a fan. A hugely entertaining story. Characterisation is superb. A “switch off the phone, park interruptions, sit back and enjoy the ride” type of novel.’ Crime writer E V Seymour
