This is a nail-biting suspense drama, underpinned by chivalry, heroism and romance. Readers who enjoy the Nevil Shute style of romance with chivalrous male lead, and the Desmond Bagley style of suspense drama, might enjoy this novel. Pharmaceutical executive Bob (Sunset Series Book 6) is at the top of his game as CEO of a global biotech company. All that comes crashing down, and his life skills are sorely tested, when Bob becomes a target of a sinister industrial espionage campaign.After their marriage is disturbed by an industrial espionage entrapment operation, Bob and his wife Fiona (Book 6), embark on what they believe will be a healing romantic second honeymoon to Edinburgh (the beautiful romantic city of Edinburgh in the 20th century forms a backdrop to books 1, 2, and 6 of the Sunset Series). However, in 2035, with Europe and Britain now part of the Soviet Union, Bob and Fiona are in for a chilling surprise. In trying to rescue their beloved Scottish relatives trapped behind the iron curtain, Bob and Fiona find themselves in deep danger. A cat and mouse suspense-filled escape story follows, which extends as far afield as Singapore and America. This is a book about chivalry, romance, and life in the near future. It involves a realistic picture of the future that isn’t about scifi technology, but is instead about the socio-political changes brought about by climate change management, human rights trends, superpower empire-building, and realistic technology evolution. It is set in Australia, Singapore, Britain, USA and Mexico in 2035, where the sixth generation of the family dynasty of the Sunset Series unfolds.The stories of books 8, 9 and 10 take place in a similar time period (2035/2036) and intersect in interesting ways.
