Drop-in event, no need to book.
Join us at Stratford Library as author R.J. Green launches, talks and takes questions about his new book, The Spaniard.
The Spaniard
Who is the Spaniard? Where is he from? Why’s he in LA? How will it end? Probably not well for anyone.
The Spaniard following the exploits of a former army officer, who hails from Spain, but fought in the dying days of the British Empire. He’s a flint-hard mercenary for hire who travels to Los Angles for one last job. The final one before he retires from, the killing game.
He’s been promised a suitcase full of cash, a get out-of-jail-free-card and a sunny retirement in the New World if he’s willing to kill a mob boss for the American government.
Should be easy for a man who’s left a trail of dead bodies across three continents and has the reputation of being the go-to soldier of fortune. Well, that’s if he can outwit the CIA, FBI and KGB. Does he have the skills to play both sides of the coin and stay alive? Or will his obituary just be buried on page ten of the LA Times as he’s played as the latest patsy in the global great game between East and West?
