The Napoleon Complex

2016 | Fiction & Poetry

Napoleon stood before a stormy sky. In his hand was a scroll, and on that scroll were characters. Etruscan characters. Reporter Jake Wosley has seen things he never thought possible. After stumbling across secret documents showing Winston Churchill's interest in the ancient Etruscan civilisation, his life changed forever. Now he lies in hiding in Thailand, trying to put the past behind him. When a letter arrives, featuring genuine quotes from Napoleon about fate and destiny, he has no idea who it's from but knows he is no longer safe. And when Jenny, his former lover and confidant reaches out to him, in terrible danger, Jake has no choice but to come to her aid. Unearthing secrets many want to get their hands on, can Wosley evade Washington and MI6? And if he really has discovered the key to foretelling destiny, what happens if this knowledge falls into the wrong hands...? The gripping sequel to Foretold by Thunder, The Napoleon Complex journey to Sierra Leone, Israel, Egypt, Austria, Tanzania and Burundi, and peers back into the smoky Westminster drawing rooms of leading Victorian statesmen, taking the reader on a fast-paced and thrilling adventure.
