Race the Pale Horse [Kindle Edition]
Product Description
When a contented youth living in a British military base in Cyprus is told that his parents’ car has tumbled over a coastal bluff on a fatal accident, he is struck with a blow from which he will never recover. Years later, as a degenerate guard at a London tourist attraction, he is met by an impassioned Interpol agent who informs him that his parents’ caskets are empty and that the funeral was a hoax.
The two find themselves on a common quest for answers and it becomes clear that the only man who can solve the riddle is the guard’s own godfather – a scientist, ex-colonel and current fugitive who was last seen ten years ago.
With a couple tricks up his sleeve and an agenda of his own, the guard vanishes to follow the trail alone. Meanwhile the agent deciphers clues a decade old on his own hunt for the retired colonel, learning as he goes the very unique circumstances of the colonel’s past and the catastrophic consequences that could occur if he should fail.
From the Author
The novel Race the Pale Horse came into being based substantially on experiences from my past (though I will not go into detail here as to which of the characters' occurrences come from direct exposure) as well as an affinity to use writing as my creative outlet. As I share names with a very well established novelist I would like to note that I am not the author credited with such works as The Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons. I hold this author in the highest regard and plan to pursue my own writings of edgy and thought-provoking fiction, and it is my hope that this coincidence will not become a point of confusion. Thank you and I hope you enjoy Race the Pale Horse! (added by author)
