The Mandela Project
()
About this ebook
The year is 1990. David Statton is employed by the British Government to do the dirty work that ministers don't like to talk about. He works for the Department for Covert Operations and his job is to kill people.
Statton helps KGB general, Alexei Urinoff, to defect from the Soviet Union. During his debrief Urinoff reveals the existence of the secretive Phoenix Group, which is plotting to kill Nelson Mandela and prevent the African National Congress from taking power in South Africa.
The Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher tasks Statton and the DFCO with the job of protecting Mandela and destroying the Phoenix Group.
Statton confronts the Mandela Project head-on, but his battle with the Phoenix Group leads him down the trail of death, intrigue and, ultimately, treachery at the very heart of the British Government.
Helping KGB generals to defect is routine, at least for David Statton in the 1990s. Discovering plots to destabilise South Africa in the name of corporate greed is less usual.
He finds himself facing a ruthless enemy who will stop at nothing to achieve their ends and David must stop them. To do so he must confront personal tragedy and treachery from those closest to him and on up into highest levels of government.
Join David Statton as he battles to keep Nelson Mandela and his dream of a better South Africa alive.
