Dangerous Men

L. Hobley

A story of misplaced idealism, conspiracy, betrayal and madness. In 1987 a group of anarchist activists, demoralised by the defeat of the miners and printers decide to try something else. Their first action ends in death. When they are joined by former members of the SAS they embark on a road to destruction and murder. John Duggan ex Special Branch who was responsible for breaking the Angry Brigade is tasked to find this new group. But Duggan has his own agenda - to expose a conspiracy around a VIP paedophile ring he must turn against his former colleagues.The action moves between the UK, Europe and the Americas.The plot to assassinate Jimmy Savile and recent revelations about the extent of child abuse makes this a compelling and relevant read. With conspiracies at the highest levels of government and a group of terrorists causing mayhem across Britain this reads like a cross between John Le Carre and Andy McNab. An exciting page turner...anarchists in action against the might of the state and an ex cop looking for the truth. Just what are the spooks and the government prepared to do to conceal their misdeeds. Percy Toplis...authentic insight into the murky world of the British secret state.'Half-Ear' former SAS operatorCaptures the spirit of '80's radicalism.Slag, writer and illustrator
