Produktbeschreibung
David Jardine has published three novels: The Mekong Compromise (2003), The Lilac Redemption (2004), and Jonah's War (2009). With Peace Work/Drummer's Run, he is publishing his first two novellas. The first novella is entitled Peace Work. An idealistic young naval officer, Carne Blue, becomes disenchanted by his nation's foreign policy, he quits the sea and develops a fatal attraction to a beautiful woman who gathers and sells government secrets as a hobby. Carne finds himself drawn into the espionage game, nearly losing his life in the invisible information war raging around the world. The second novella is entitled Drummer's Run and it is based upon the true circumstances surrounding the unsolved murder of a middle class couple's daughter. Drummer's Run lays bare the parents' trauma and confusion, intensified by the father's overpowering compulsion to find the killer himself. The chase leads the couple into the world of drug-dealing and jailhouse snitches; in the pursuit they nearly lose their lives at the hands of the clever killer. Will they find their daughter's killer and find their own peace, the peace that comes with knowing that they have done everything within their power to find justice for her?
