Ian Sutherland is glad to help when brother and sister Enzo and Rita Hasani are forced from their Kosovan homeland and end up in North Yorkshire where they claim asylum. But not all refugees are hardworking entrepreneurs. Some are criminals looking to exploit their hosts.
Ian soon finds himself at odds with Spartak, a paramilitary leader from the Kosovan Liberation Army, and facing old adversaries from his past.
Someone is manipulating things in the background. Could it be MI6 spymaster, Simon Black?
Against a backdrop of tobacco smuggling and money laundering, Ian takes on Kosovan thugs, a warlord and his nemesis seeking revenge. But others want revenge too while GCHQ and an ex-SAS operative try to level the playing field.
And somewhere in all this is Inga with her ice blonde hair and alternative sense of fashion. But does anyone know who she really is?
For Enzo and Rita, the UK is their refuge, but can a coat be a refuge? Or even make-up? Everyone is trying to leave the past behind them and find a place of safety. It is what they do when they get there that counts.

Luger
Escapement
William Kinread attended Sedbergh School and was one of fifty prize winners in a national writing competition run by Barclays Bank. The main prize was a European Tour but William's writing was also reviewed by Philip Ziegler who was editor in chief at Collins at the time.
Philip Ziegler commented that William, "Has an obvious talent for writing..." But life, family and a career in law took over and storytelling was put on the back burner.
William qualified as a solicitor and for the last 35 years has not had much free time to devote to writing. Four years ago, however, he stepped down as a partner of a Harrogate law firm and joined the family business as a director and legal counsel. Although full-time, it has given William more opportunity to turn to writing - hence the novels 'Luger' and 'Escapement'.
'Refuge', the author's third novel in this series based on real events but linked through fiction, will be available from end November 2024.
William lives in North Yorkshire with his wife, son and two dogs. He still runs and enjoys many outdoor pursuits.
