Maximum Discretion

by P.A. Fielding

Six days that rocked the special relationship.In 1997 a newly elected Prime Minister faced the toughest test of his first year in office, against the established American President. It all began when an elite group of British agents led by John Peterson, stumble across a relic of the Second World War. It was this discovery of a sunken "lost" U-Boat in the Atlantic Ocean, which opened the door to a hidden world of undiscovered relics, protected by a small group of men, who have watched over them since 1945. It was the unearthing of Nazi relics that threatened to fracture the special relationship. The Americans had benefitted the most from the exiled Nazis after the war, and they were not going to pass on further undiscovered Nazi scientific knowledge. What followed was a brutal test of strength and willpower. A new Cold War beckons between the world's closest countries, United States of America and the United Kingdom.After witnessing a horrific event, John Peterson is forced on the run, which gets him slap-bang in the middle of a power struggle for knowledge, between the world's most powerful men, and as a result becomes a wanted man, by the Americans. With the Americans hot on his tail only he knows the truth.A few men's discovery is one man's passion.

About the author

PAF started writing stories at the tender age of eighteen. Maximum Discretion was his first novel. "I'm a big fan of spy stories. I wanted to write about what I love." He then went on to write and direct documentaries and feature films. However, there was a novel that had been patiently waiting in the wings. Finally, The Rattler was born. The Rattler Series is the result of his fascination with the paranormal. He saw his first ghost in a castle in Ireland when he was thirteen. "The Rattler Series had been on my, 'to do list', for a few years. I'm so happy I've finally released the Old Hag!"
