Brian Venables: Sword of Honour, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The reader will be taken from the ordered life of a young Guards officer, a career he had looked forward to since childhood, to that other world. The world of the hired gun.
Where a man fought simply for money.
Throughout his service as a mercenary he always felt that the cause was just fighting against the drug crazed African terrorist who recruited boys as young as ten and led them on a path of rape and barbaric behaviour. Nothing however lasts forever.
After his time in Africa he returns to England a reasonably rich man, he is contacted by his former African CO, and asked if he would consider a new career as a hit man.
Once again it was made clear that he would only act if he considered the target to be beyond the pale.
This course of action made him both well travelled and very wealthy. Truly he could be described as a gentleman assassin.
An exciting novel moving quickly from one adventure to another interspaced with romance and travel.
