About the Book

A megalomaniac politician continues relentlessly with his devious quest to take control of a new and potentially world destroying technology. This technology is being kept safe on an island - created as if by magic - using the powerful new technology itself to ensure that it is only used for beneficial means Rival powers desperately crave possession of the technology and attempt to intimidate the small island into submission by using military muscle. The Islanders are driven to using their peaceful technology as a dramatic weapon of defence…………..Will this paradox fulfil their dreams or will it become their nightmare?


About the Author

Born and educated in the London borough of Hillingdon, I started my professional life as a student civil engineer in the Atomic Power Division of a major British Engineering Company. After three years in this environment, I decided that the constraints of formal engineering were not for me and opted for the more open arena of logistics, which, at that time, was virtually unexplored – except by the military establishments. Progressing through general management and directorships along my chosen path I ventured into the field of logistics management consultancy, first, with a British company and then as vice president of an American consulting group in their London office. Ultimately, I bought out the London practice and formed a close friendship and a joint working agreement with an American business entrepreneur, and we have worked together collectively and separately in around forty different countries. I feel eternal gratitude for the opportunities that I have been fortunate enough to enjoy through the extensive world travel my professional life has enabled. This literary work is populated by a selected amalgam of many of the fascinating people with whom I have had the privilege to meet both socially and professionally and the truly wonderful and, sometimes, extremely challenging countries it has been my great fortune to visit.
