Gerald Seymour

    25. November 1941

    Gerald Seymour ist ein gefeierter britischer Romanautor, dessen Werk tief aus seiner umfangreichen Erfahrung als Korrespondent im Ausland schöpft. Seine Erzählungen zeichnen sich durch komplexe Handlungsstränge und ein scharfes Gespür für die geopolitischen Spannungen und verdeckten Operationen aus, die die moderne Welt prägen. Seymour verbindet meisterhaft Spannung mit geerdetem Realismus und erforscht oft die komplexen Motivationen von Einzelpersonen, die im Kreuzfeuer globaler Konflikte gefangen sind. Sein Übergang vom Journalismus zum hauptberuflichen Belletristikautor hat seinen Geschichten eine authentische Dringlichkeit und einen unerschrockenen Blick auf die Folgen von Macht verliehen.

      'Seymour produces the most intelligent writing in the thriller genre' Financial Times *** He had been to the limit. Then they sent him further. Gary - 'Gaz' - Baldwin is a watcher,not a killer. Operating with a special forces unit deep in Syria,he is to sit in a hide,observe a village, report back and leave. But the appalling atrocity he witnesses will change his life forever. Before long,he is living as a handyman on the Orkney islands,far from Syria,far from the army, not far enough from the memories that have all but destroyed him. 'Knacker' is one of the last old-school operators at the modern MI6 fortress on the Thames. He presides over the Round Table,a little group who meet in a pub and yearn for simpler, less bureaucratic times. When news reaches Knacker that the Russian officer responsible for the Syrian incident may be in Murmansk,northern Russia,he sets in motion a plan to kill him. It will involve a sleeper cell,a marksman and other resources - all unlikely to be sanctioned by the MI6 top brass, so it must be done off the books. But first,he will need a sure identification. And for that, he needs a watcher... Full of surprise,suspense and betrayal,Beyond Recall is a searching novel of moral complexity and a story of desperate survival.

      Two young men - Jago and Marcantonio - both studying business and finance: Jago is a kid from a rough part of London who has worked hard to get a job in a bank and is now on a fast-track secondment to the Berlin office. Marcantonio is one of the new generation in the 'Ndrangheta crime families from Calabria, Southern Italy. He is in Germany to learn how to channel their illicit millions towards legitimate businesses all over Europe. When Jago witnesses Marcantonio commit a vicious assault and the police seem uninterested, the Englishman refuses to let the matter drop. But by pursuing the gangster to his grandfather's mountain lair, Jago is stepping into the middle of a delicate surveillance operation, which sets alarm bells ringing in Rome, London and Berlin. It also leads him to Consolata, a young woman who sees in Jago the chance to turn her non-violent protest campaign against the crime families into something altogether more lethal... NO MORTAL THING is novel of relentless power and mounting suspense, a brilliant portrayal of organised crime in Europe and the under-resourced men and women who fight it.
