Scarlatti'S Wheel eBook

The Algarve. A time-honoured favourite of the humble British holiday-maker. But scratch the surface and you''ll find a world the brochures don''t tell you about - an outlaw''s playground of death, greed and deception. A place of fragile alliances and unsettled scores. Of blurred lines, where sticking to your principles might just get you killed. This wild frontier will always need a ruler - it has never much mattered who. For here, the sun will always rise no matter how many fall.As a failed assassination attempt re-opens old wounds, two old enemies will lock horns once more to secure their interests and win a bitter battle of wills. Terry Swift and Roy Finch will need foot-soldiers - it will be these people upon whom they must focus their attention if either is to emerge the victor. Finch and Swift know their fates will hang on their recruits doing as they are bid. Mistakes will be costly. In the race to the bottom, who will come out on top?
