Agency Woman by John A. A. Logan
I’m very happy to announce the release of my new
novel, Agency Woman, on Kindle!
I haven’t released a book since late 2012, so I was
quite surprised to find out how exciting it was to do this again.
Thanks very much to everyone who has already downloaded,
you helped get Agency Woman to Number 21 in the “International Mystery and
Crime” chart on Amazon UK (nearly knocking on Ian Rankin’s door at Number 1,
though I don’t think he lost any sleep over this! I did, though, because I kept
refreshing the screen to check my progress in the charts…)
I quite enjoyed being in an “International Mystery”
chart, made me feel just like Austin Powers for five minutes!
Thanks again…and here is a wee description of Agency
Woman:
*************************************
A lost, wandering and damaged man finds himself
drafted back into the world he thought he had escaped, when the local branch of
a powerful, international Agency needs a mysterious job done in the remote
Highlands of Scotland.
The new companion who leads him out of disaffected early retirement is a seductive, young, novice female agent, but could there really be far more to her than there at first seems?
They find themselves in a world of natural beauty, mountain and beach, which they will only contaminate with extraordinary rendition, abduction, bloodshed and torture.
The modern bureaucratic world of paperwork and subcontracting will mean that no-one actually knows which government or country is behind the operation, but one man will soon remember why he left Agency work like this and why he hates it so much, even though it may really be love that has dragged him back into it all.

A dark, Scottish tale of conspiracy, espionage,
murder and terrorism, with an existential edge, and the spirit of an ancient mountain
looming at its centre.

this: it is unaware of being despair.”
