A conspiracy to destroy… Johnny Kay has to live with the memories of Wineglass: a bungled, bloodied PIRA intercept. Then he accidentally kills an American citizen and his career with MI5 is over. Thanks to his mother’s influence Johnny is recruited by a slick private sector security conglomerate calling themselves MI7 and they’ve got the national security field to themselves… Johnny’s first job brings him into contact with a diabolical food additive, ready to be marketed to poor-nation armies. When Johnny begins to uncover his mother and stepfather’s role in the project he is putting himself in serious danger. But it is not just his own life at risk. Peace activist Heather Weston is also a target. Johnny’s first mistake is to save Heather’s life, his second is to believe there is such a thing as safety when your own family want you dead… James Long was born in Sussex in 1949.
