About this ebook
The 10th Jonas Forbes Thriller
1964 Khrushchev has fallen from power in the Soviet Union and his successor, Brezhnev, seems intent on restoring iron control from the Kremlin. Somebody wants a dissident historian, Svetlana Petrova, to escape to the UK. Jonas Forbes is selected by MI6 to help, mainly because he’s considered expendable. Just before Jonas, as James Marston, lands Svetlana’s liberal husband is arrested and sent off to the Gulag system but escapes on the way.
From the start Major Feliks Vladimirovich Golovkin of the KGB, knows of the plans but fails to catch Jonas and Svetlana before they slip out of Moscow.His efforts are not helped by a superior, Colonel Alexandra Tolstoy, conspiring with a subordinate, Lieutenant Valentina Boykov, to by-pass him. Jonas and Svetlana reach Leningrad where they assume new identities, before moving on for Finland. Meanwhile, Dmitri Petrov, Svetlana’s husband, is helped by Karelians and reaches Finland.
Golovkin defies orders and tries to capture Jonas and Svetlana but the attempt ends in disaster and Golovkin is removed. Jonas becomes certain the escape has been betrayed, especially after Svetlana kills her husband because he’s betrayed them.
Why does Lieut. Boykov feel a failure? Why has Svetlana been brought to the UK? How does Jonas deal with his suspicions?

I am a retired teacher, living near Chichester, Sussex, UK. I am married with one daughter and two grandsons. Apart from writing my main hobbies are Family History, Music (all kinds) and playing the guitar. I have published four historical novels under different names which, you may find, still in print. I should point out that I wrote for my OWN enjoyment with the hope that others might also enjoy my books. What SERIOUSLY undermines my sales is my reluctance to be involved in social media. The details of my email account proves I am no recluse: I just focus on the negative sides of social media and so avoid them. However, you can contact me via my blog site re' my books and I'd welcome your questions and comments. I promise to check for them regularly.
