Forward and a Diagonal Step Below

by Robert James

The ultimate game of chess on this extremely real chequered board has been declared.
Great Britain is the last sovereign State to have resisted Americanisation, but is increasingly left out in the cold by NATO and the United Nations.
Britain faces checkmate, and the only move left to cover the Queen is the release of its nuclear deterrent. Will it get played?

About the author

I enjoy reading as a means to take you off and away on a telepathic ride with the author, to share the world that they have created and the highs and lows for how those within the story presented ride out the challenges, drive the plot being unveiled.
I took my first steps in scripting short stories over a decade ago now, the genres I favour are fantasy, fast-paced adventure, science fiction and fiction underpinned by modern science.
My enjoyment of writing stems from hearing my characters share their voices, thoughts, hopes and aspirations as they interact with and impact upon the world they inhabit.
