Threat Level One
Crime Thriller
This book details an action-packed story about Boyd and his Special Crime Unit. It has been described as action-packed and unputdownable. In the winter months of 2020, the author signed a film option.
When Master Sergeant Jack Dooley uncovers a startling
secret in the desert wastes of Iraq he unwittingly triggers an alarm that
resonates throughout the western world. It doesn’t take long before Boyd and
his elite Special Crime Unit find themselves handling the investigation.
But
who is the man from Tikrit the police and intelligence community are desperately
searching for? Is he really an Islamic assassin with orders to take out the
leaders of the western world? As the Cumbrian counter-terrorist detective chases
down the enquiry he enlists the aid of multiple intelligence agencies only to uncover
a right wing plot to take over the government.
Boyd soon realises that the man
from Tikrit is an unknown quantity– and he certainly isn’t the only threat that
needs to be thwarted.
A race against time follows with Boyd and his
colleagues arguing with the Home Secretary and officialdom when multiple threats
from a variety of lethal sources are uncovered. Short of resources, short on
patience, and short of time, Boyd casts an eye on the national threat level as
it slowly rises from the peace and tranquillity of threat level five.
Then, as
the nation’s threat level hits ‘critical’, it becomes blatantly obvious that
Boyd and his team must do all they can to protect the United Kingdom’s Royal Family.
It’s only when Boyd meets aristocracy and enlists the help of a Knight of the
Realm that he realises the country really is at Threat Level One and there’s a
very highly placed traitor in the midst of it all.
Threat Level One – Based on the true story of the
national threat level, the men and women who make it, and those who try to
break it.
