As science develops more and more sophisticated military hardware, inevitably it has also turned to the genetic 'enhancement' of military personnel.
Scottish former police protection officer Harriet 'Harry' Armstrong discovers the body of a beautiful young woman outside the home of a powerful US Senator. Detective Michael Freeman knows this case means pressure - pressure to close the case quickly, pressure to keep the Senator out of it, pressure from his ambitious wife not to rock the political boat. But Harry and Freeman have both become involved in a conspiracy that is impossible to walk away from. What is the Senator's link to a shady genetic engineering company? Why does MI6 want Harry to take a job with the company's founder?
An edgy combination of political thriller and police procedural, ROCK CREEK PARK represents another step in the brilliant career of CWA award-winning author Simon Conway.
Simon Conway was born in California in 1967, educated in Britain and studied English Literature at the University of Edinburgh. He served in the British army with the Black Watch and the Queen's Own Highlanders. After leaving the military he worked for The HALO Trust clearing land mines and unexploded ordnance in Cambodia, Kosovo, Abkhazia, Eritrea and Sri Lanka. Simon and his wife, the Channel Four News Correspondent Sarah Smith, lived in Washington, DC, for four years before returning to London in September 2011.
