The Fulcrum Files by Mark Chisnell

 

Synopsis

The young Ben Clayton was one of Britain’s brightest boxing prospects, until the day he slammed a left hook into a fragile chin. Sickened by the consequences he turned away from the ring, found solace in the arms of the beautiful Lucy Kirk and looked for new challenges.

On the 7th March 1936, after almost two decades of peace in Europe, Hitler ordered the German Army back into the Rhineland. It was a direct challenge to Britain and France. Still unnerved by the toll of the Great War, the politicians dithered. The French Army stayed in its barracks, while the aristocratic British elite looked on from their country retreats.

History teetered on a knife edge, but the spymasters were busy.

Just one man could make the difference between war and peace, victory or defeat. And that man was Ben Clayton. Thrown into the maelstrom of plot and counter-plot, into a world of murder, spies and traitors, Ben must battle not just to survive, but to protect all that he loves and holds most dear.

“Ben was aware of nothing but the inexorable combination of scientific law and fate that pulled his friend upwards.  Stanley was turning, twisting in the chair, fending himself off the mast as he bounced upwards even faster.  Ben saw the impending impact coming – a spin of the chair, an unknowing, fateful push from Stanley’s right foot, then there was a sickening crack as his head connected with the jib of the crane.”

About Misty

Your friendly neighborhood narcissist. I'm sarcastic, cynical and a bit cranky. I own a soap box so big that sometimes I have difficulty stepping down off of it, and I'm about 94% certain I have multiple personalities. I don't sleep enough, and I read more than any person should ever consider normal. I have anger management issues, especially when I'm stuck in traffic and I have an unhealthy obsession with my Kindle. I am a vampire lovin', zombie obsessed, book-in-hand, iPod freak. You either love me or hate me. You be the judge.

  1. Nightmare Gods by A. Hollingworth

    “The cage opened to dark void, the light from the elevator stopping abruptly at the edge. She held her breath, feeling her hearth throbbing in her throat. She strained her ears. Footsteps. There were footsteps drawing near. She squinted her eyes. There was a pale shape swimming through darkness. She stood up and clenched her fists, trembling. She had never been in a fight, but there was nothing else she could do.”
