Historian John Buckley offers a radical reappraisal of Great Britain’s fighting forces during World War Two, challenging the common belief that the British Army was no match for the forces of Hitler’s Germany. Following Britain’s military commanders and troops across the battlefields of Europe, from D-Day to VE-Day, from the Normandy beaches to Arnhem and the Rhine, and, ultimately, to the Baltic, Buckley’s provocative history demonstrates that the British Army was more than a match for the vaunted Nazi war machine. This fascinating revisionist study of the campaign to liberate Northern Europe in the war’s final years features a large cast of colorful unknowns and grand historical personages alike, including Field Marshal Sir Bernard Montgomery and the prime minister, Sir Winston Churchill. By integrating detailed military history with personal accounts, it evokes the vivid reality of men at war while putting long-held misconceptions finally to rest.

Soon after arriving at his Oxford school, the enigmatic North has invited his female history teacher, Bernie, to lunch - and not, as she had thought, to discuss history. When Monty, North's married physics teacher, makes it clear that he wants Bernie for himself, North seeks to mollify him in his own particular way: by seducing him. As North and his bizarre cohort travel across Oxford, London, Ravello, and Washington, the sexual anarchy grows ever more devastating, until eventually North's farcical ménage-à-trois results in death and tragedy. But what is the real story - and is the English master's version to be trusted? A dazzling psychological thriller, North is by turns erudite, audacious and brilliantly witty. An utterly assured and wholly original debut.

“As he settled down to try to sleep, the Colonel saw the light flashing on his bedside warning system. His instincts, honed over forty years, made him freeze...” Ludvig Korotski is the ex-station head of the KGB in Berlin. During the early 80’s he trained a ruthless team of saboteurs, assassins and overseas agents. A cruel, ruthless man, he had left mother Russia when the ‘soft liberals’ began to root out the hardliners. He earned a living, based in Sweden, offering his freelance ‘services’ to all comers, including Iran, Libya and the militant Al Qaeda. Out of the blue, he is approached by an old adversary, an ex-CIA operative who offers him a contract to put together a new team to kill people in Britain. Ludvig doesn’t care what they’ve done – his only concern is the £6,000,000 he is offered to fulfil the contract. All is going well until one of his agents tries to kill ex-SAS Colonel Harriman. Harriman is now running his own security firm and, after the failed attempt, begins to investigate why he had been targeted. Was it an old grudge? He sets about finding out why the murders are being committed and unravels a frightening story... Death is a Certainty was inspired by Ted York’s knowledge of the financial services industry. He also takes inspiration from a number of novelists, including Jack Higgins, Lee Child and Ken Follett.
