Thriller/Espionage

Date Published: 07-04-2025

Publisher: Logikal Solutions


In life, the journey is the reward. Old Timer certainly has had a journey through this life. For nearly forty years he has been both a geek and an assassin. Despite someone at his company having given him the contract decades ago, nobody there actually knew what he did, just that the client paid. Had he told anyone about it, especially his coworkers, they would have laughed in his face.

Since late January, 1992, he has kept a secret . . . and souvenirs. Secrets were common currency in his world, but souvenirs were against company policy and strictly forbidden.

Presented as a novel. Any names, dates, events or places that happen to exist in the world you know are strictly coincidental. Take the journey that is about to start. Find out how Ukraine saved the world from nuclear war in 1992 and what they did is still saving it today because nobody ever found out.

Some readers will never think about food the same way again.

Slava Ukraini! Heroiam slava!

bon appétit

 


Review

An incredibly different kind of from not so distant history story where the narrative is layered and the escalation is convincingly done.

The author writes knowledgably about the place and time.

Plot, characters, and circumstances all worked. Excellent suspense thriller.

This novel puts forth a scenario that is very believable. It really makes you contemplate what the government hides and what major things we never know about.
