Opis

Young and naive Freddie Kennedy, an English born country boy stumbles inadvertently into a European crime gang after banishment from his family due to his deceiving of them. He failed at a US flight training school and lied about the fact. Freddie, now in a foreign land and a loner, is introduced as a pawn into one arm of one of the most powerful organisations on planet earth. The leader of this organisation holds a personal quest to retrieve hidden Anti-Matter Data that can be used as a viable energy source for the Earth's future. A decade later the Data is now held by an old school acquaintance from Freddie's past. Freddie learns there are astonishingly sinister aspects at play and that the situation leading him to lie to his family were very much orchestrated and mainly due to his ancestry. He vows revenge and is easily persuaded by the Sausenhofer Organisation to undertake the retrieval of The Anti-Matter Data. Retrained in the dark area of global covert operations and remaining anonymous to the world as the 'Powers' that be have no wish to be revealed should Freddie fail, he finds love and a path back to his family but this also involves mortal danger to all concerned. Freddie finds himself stuck between powerful adversities, love and moral standings. Links connecting as far back as The Illuminati to present day Financial Corporations are all that stand in his way. The knowledge he possesses could influence the course of history but he himself struggles with his own insignificance in the greater scheme of life and his personal woes. The underdog winning makes for such predictable inevitability and seldom entertains, so hopefully a certain mixture of exaggerated truth from the writers own past and a fantasy that could eventually become likelihood will make for an intriguing story.
