A tense thriller with lighter moments, and beautifully written, Peter’s first book is set in the not too distant future:
Britain is out of Europe; Scotland has become independent following a second referendum; and Russian forces have just marched over the Latvian border and occupied the cities of Rezekne and Daugavpils, testing NATO’s response.
Retired army captain Simon Shaw unwittingly finds himself at the forefront of the Resistance Movement, in the Scottish border region, as England quickly becomes the next target for Russia’s expansionist leaders. Simon needs to draw on all the skills honed whilst serving in Berlin before the Wall came down, to fight the immediate threat being posed to a weakened, divided country.
