My new thriller Abducted is now available.Powell returns in an action packed novel of violence, sex and betrayal!
He is trying to recover two children from Saudi Arabia, who have been abducted by their father. In a culture where women are second class citizens, a woman holds the key to the success or failure of his mission.
Meanwhile, back in Brighton, Afina is trying to deal with a new threat from Romanian gangsters.
From the streets of Brighton to Riyadh, Powell must take the law into his own hands, to help the innocent.
My new thriller Trafficking is now available to pre-order at:amazon.co.uk/Bill-Ward/e/B00F154DZ2/re
amazon.com/Bill-Ward/e/B00F154DZ2/re
Trafficking is big business and those involved show no remorse, have no mercy, only a deadly intent to protect their income.
Afina is a young Romanian girl with high expectations when she arrives in Brighton but she has been tricked and there is no job, only a life as a sex slave.
Facing a desperate future, Afina tries to escape and a young female police officer, who comes to her aid, is stabbed.
Powell’s life has been torn apart for the second time and he is determined to find the man responsible for his daughter’s death.
Action, violence and sex abound in this taut thriller about one of today’s worst crimes.
Thanks Bill for being my GR friend. I read Outlander some years ago and gave it 5 stars!
Happy Xmas everyone and if you don't actually celebrate Christmas then just have a great holiday!
