Description
BOOKS 1 and 2 in the CAL HARRISON THRILLER SERIES.
The gripping two-part story of 26-year-old Sofie James, recovering from her father’s recent suicide, who learns that he may have been the victim of a secret drug trial. Desperate to uncover the truth, she agrees to meet two pharma company whistleblowers with a journalist friend on a Thames river boat. But it all goes horrifyingly wrong: her friend and the two men are shot and left for dead, and Sofie narrowly escapes with her life.
Shockingly, they disappear, along with the evidence, and the police don’t believe her. As a witness, Sofie's life is now in grave danger, not least because the chairman of the company conducting the drug trial, Cambridge Bio, is a leading politician. Forced to try to solve the mystery on her own, she goes on the run. But there’s someone else looking for her: ex-special forces Cal Harrison had been tasked by Cambridge to ‘protect’ the whistleblowers, and he suspects he’s been set up. When he begins to question their disappearance, he finds himself in the frame for their murder.
His only hope of saving himself, and getting to the truth, is to find her.
In Part 2, 'Don't Look Down', the story comes to a thrilling climax as they flee together to Paris and Amsterdam, forging new identities for them both in an effort to hide from authorities they can no longer trust. Their survival depends on Sofie gaining the confidence of a pharma company insider, and the ability of Cal to shake off their pursuers. When matters finally come to a terrifying climax in Gibraltar, there are just three words on a map that stand between them and their salvation…
