About this series
"Andrew Denbury, I will give you until ten o'clock tomorrow morning to come back to me with a set of proposals which will promptly release the bank from its liability to you. You can telephone the local manager with your proposals early tomorrow morning. Otherwise we shall appoint a receiver."
Smithson looked as though he was about to explode. "I will not have a young whippersnapper like you come into my own house and insult me. Here." He hurled the papers down the table. "You can get out. Let me make it clear to you that I will never do anything more to help you. You´re in the receiver´s hands now."
"Your bank bounced your cheque the day before the receiver was appointed. Your signature was on that cheque, Andrew, so I'm afraid your name stinks with my boss. He doesn't believe you signed the cheque in good faith. In fact he's talking about going to court to establish your personal liability. I'm afraid you wouldn't get a job with us at the moment as an unpaid lavatory cleaner."
"Not only will I make you bankrupt. This is going to cost you a lot more than just the settlement with me. I will fight this right through the courts. I have the funds to do that, so I'm bound to win in the end. Even you don't dispute that you owe me money. However the legal battle will cost you a great deal. For me, the cost doesn't matter."
What will Andrew do to resist the overwhelming forces massed against him? How will he be able to fight back? Will he have any chance of succeeding? Will Samantha be able to help him?

The woman began to bounce up and down like a horse-rider trotting, gasping with pleasure. The man beneath her was jerking in violent spasms. There came an animal howl of hurt which brought their movements to a juddering halt. Caroline knew she had to get away. The ferry´s engines had stopped. The only port they could reach is Dubrovnik. But the Yugoslav Civil War is happening and Dubrovnik is under siege. Will the JNA open fire? She was struck across the face. A vice-like grip held her mouth half open. She could taste the dirt on the horny palm of the man´s hand. A steel band seemed to grip round her chest. "Be still or you will feel the point of my knife." Through the window she could see a man was seated, tied upright to the back of a chair. There was blood streaming down his face and his hair was dishevelled. Then the shutters were banged shut and she saw no more. The wind plucked great tongues of flame and brought them rolling down the hillside. The tinder-dry vegetation caught fire immediately. The hot air sucked up burning twigs and tossed them further down the hill, starting more small fires ahead. With a sinking feeling, she realised she had to climb up those rough, bent pieces of iron. One was missing, leaving a large gap. She hated heights. What would she find when she got to the top? Several flashes were scattered on the mountainside. A few seconds later a dull rumble reached them. A great explosion of fire suddenly mushroomed up and lit the shapes of the buildings ahead. It felt as though they were sailing into the mouth of hell. Dubrovnik had come under fire.
