Tengiz Khan

By Neil Robinson

Bandit, smuggler, warlord, Tengiz Khan was a legend in the early years of Georgia's independence after the fall of the Soviet Union. From his mountain redoubt in the highlands of Khevsureti, his criminal empire spread its tentacles across the Caucasus, the Black Sea and beyond. He was the bogeyman mothers would threaten their children with, the popular rebel confronting corrupt officialdom and, in a strange way, a hero to a nation both young and old.

Some say the Khan died fighting the Russians, some that he retired to live off his ill-gotten gains, others that he had been a myth from the start. British agent Sebastian Friend, sent to Georgia and Turkey to investigate a criminal syndicate, finds the legend of the Khan is very much alive. Trapped in a bitter turf war between rival gangs, Friend is forced to go rogue in search of justice. And there is no justice more brutal and final than the Khan's.

The author of 'The Other Side of Trust' returns with the second thriller to feature British Secret Agent Sebastian Friend. Set in Georgia and Turkey, 'Tengiz Khan' offers intrigue, pace and thrills for fans of Len Deighton, John Le Carre and Adam Hall.

'Neil Robinson has hit one out of the park with his latest thriller. Tengiz Khan is an intelligent page-turner that manages to create a wonderfully seductive fictional world and to tackle serious issues in one accomplished package.'
- Christopher Sandford, author of 1976: the Year that Scorched
