Synopsis

Join Blake Langford and his colleagues in three new short stories that complement the novel series; The Blake Langford Adventures.

Firing Line: When Alison Pearce stumbles across her estranged sister's death certificate in a classified file at Special Branch Headquarters, her world is turned upside down. Desperate for answers, she contacts her family only to learn from her brother-in-law that her sister is not dead, she's working undercover, infiltrating the operations of a powerful multi-millionaire trafficking drugs out of Amsterdam. With the stakes continuing to rise, Blake Langford assists Alison to help unravel a treacherous web of lies that stretches from the shadows of Amsterdam's red light district to the upper echelons of the Dutch Government.

Group Think: Samir Khalifa goes undercover at a high-stakes casino to investigate a gambler suspected of using a laundrette as a front for a tax evasion and money laundering scheme. When nine other businessmen buy into the scheme however, Samir becomes the lone hold-out, placing him in direct opposition with the gambler and under growing suspicion. As Blake Langford and Alison Pearce infiltrate the consortium, Samir's doubts deepen. The operation seems too smooth, the profits too tempting and the gambler was too convincing. As pressures mount and loyalties blur, Samir must decide whether to hold his ground or will the power of group think push him to cross a line he swore he'd never breach?

Blue Icons: Whilst passing through Luton Airport, Michael Langford and his girlfriend, Emma West, are unexpectedly intercepted by a security guard and escorted through a labyrinth of corridors to a shadowy interrogation room. There, a mysterious man bearing a neon blue emblem on his shirt reveals that Michael's father, Special Branch agent, Blake Langford, has been compromised during an undercover mission and urgently needs his help. Without time to question, Michael and Emma are whisked onto a chartered plane bound for Gibraltar. Upon arrival, they're taken aboard a fishing boat that slips into a hidden cave beneath The Rock Of Gibraltar. What awaits them is a powerful, unknown energy source capable of triggering nuclear armageddon.
