“The bombing of Guernica, 80 years ago, inspired one of Picasso’s best-known works. Now, visitors to this iconic part of Spain’s Basque Country will discover a town devoted to peace and reconciliation. It is also about using art as a form of protest to encourage change and make people think objectively, rather than react irrationally.” James Gerard The novel is about family, friendships, war, peace, history, hope, endurance and ultimately reconciliation. It is about stopping for a moment and seeing the world from another person’s point of view in different times, cultures, and environments. The first part of the book centres around two small, yet significant villages, Scotstoun, Glasgow and Guernica in the Basque region, northern Spain. Set before, during and after WW2, it should be noted that two of the main characters include a doctor and nurse at a time when there was no NHS. The second part of the book focuses· on a Peace Centre set up in a flat in Scotstoun called Haizean (Basque for in the wind), where students come from all over the world to share ideas. Imagine living in enforced exile for nearly forty years of your life. Add to that the lack of any of your fellow-countrymen within a thousand miles. Asier was a doctor living in Guernica back in 1937 alongside his wife and two children when the German bombers arrived. He has to assume that his family have all perished. Arriving in Glasgow, thanks to the efforts of John Oswald, a Scottish journalist, Asier carries on his work as a doctor. Asier’s diaries afford some insight into his coming to terms with separation from his homeland, namely the Basque region in the North of Spain. But more than this, they chronicle key events leading up to, during and after World War II.

Shoshanna is a loner, a brilliant and skilled special operator; however, her troubled past is beginning to catch up with her. There's an element of uncertainty which defines her methods as Shoshanna starts hunting Special Forces operators. The hunters have become the hunted. She's engaging in a war between herself and those who have either disgraced or exploited the 'Service', but deep down, there is also something unexplained - something more to the equation. Repulsed as much by ex-soldiers profiting unfairly from their experiences as she is by former indiscretions and acts of betrayal, her targets are operators she once worked with on international assignments. Shoshanna plans a sequence of missions to surveil and kill her targets, one by one, with a signature brutality that is hard to ignore. Her victims, all from the international Special Forces community, have each in some manner let her down during an operation over the years. The helicopter that didn't pick up her crew - kill the intelligence officer. A Russian Spetsnaz soldier who burned a room full of children - marked for death. Next, a female Danish officer who betrayed her team - a target to be neutralised. Shoshanna is working her way through the list and it is attracting more and more attention. Rogue Warrior is a clever and explosive thriller. ""Rogue Warrior is both authentic in its writing and realistic in highlighting the sometimes-vulnerable nature of even the world's best soldiers. It would make a must-see film."" Paul Biddiss (Former Para Reg), UK's leading Military Technical Advisor for Film and TV
