"There’s a lot going on in my crime thriller books," says author Stuart Doughty, "but there's also stuff you may not find in other writers' books. There are murders, heists, chases, but also quirky characters, snappy dialogue, and a sense of humour. My main character, British PI John Kite, is a tough guy who can fight, climb, drive fast and is a police-trained marksman, but he's also intelligent, amusing and thoughtful - even sensitive - on occasions. At age 19, Kite discovered his father was a professional criminal, so he changed his name, and changed his life to join the police. Now, as a PI, he still strives to atone for his father’s crimes. Specialising in hunting stolen artworks, he crosses continents to fight crime – and save the world from the mayhem threatened by despots, tycoons, warlords, and foreign agents.”

Stuart was born in London, England. He spent most of his life working as a Television Producer, making popular drama series and soaps.

    A call from a friend with pieces of information, driving home trying to piece it together. Only to find his house surrounded by cop cars. His house had ruthless been torn apart, and even the detective thought there was more behind what he was now doing. Was this a connection to the call.

    I really enjoy this series. This book was action packed and fast moving. It has a great cast of characters too. John Kite is one very cool character! He is smart, he is resourceful and he likes the ladies. I sure hope this is t the end of this series.
