The Invisible Assassin: The Malichea Quest

Conspiracy theory meets science fiction meets spy thriller in the first of a new series centred on Jake, a young press officer for a government department.

Covering a demonstration to protest against excavations for a controversial new university science block, Jake witnesses a disturbing and inexplicable event, but a news blackout has been imposed by the authorities. His own department alleges he has simply been affected by a mysterious gas, but he then faces a series of attacks on his life - apparent 'accidents' which he believes may relate to his discovery of the secret medieval Order of Malichea, and their lost library of scientific treatises.

This is an easily-read, pacy novel packed with intrigue and suspense that will engage a wide readership.
