The Mentor

By Steve Jackson

Book Overview

Spying, lying and dying. Fans of 'Spooks' will be swept away by Steve Jackson's explosive debut novel. They say lightning never strikes twice. They are wrong. London has been bombed for the second time in 2 years, but this time the enemy is a lot closer to home. Paul Aston, a young MI6 Agent, is sent to investigate. But nothing could have prepared him for the scenes of horror and devastation that he sees. Images that will stay with him for the rest of his life. The government blames MI6, MI6 blames the government, but the truth behind what the media are calling 18/8 is more chilling than anyone could have imagined. Slowly, Aston tears away the layers of corruption, betrayal and murder to reveal the real culprit. Someone who knows every trick in the book, because he's played every trick in the book. Someone who has a deep seething hatred of MI6 and will stop at nothing until his vengeance is satisfied. He is The Mentor.

Booze and brains

Very cleverly written . Surprise by the turn of the tale in the middle of the story. Didn't quite connect the why of the (t)reason to the sexual link. It's not because you drink a lot that your brain goes to mush seems to be the author's message.....self defense ??
