About the Book

Alf Spanner is a mild mannered scientist who makes a living making robots and designing computer systems.

Alf has been working on such a theory for six years and is happy to accept the task, until he discovers that the Major has hidden agendas. Alf is not a hero and enlists the help of his friend Liam Mail to stop the Major, but this puts Liam’s girlfriend in danger. In a race against time they must save the girl and stop the Major, whilst being pursued by a deadly assassin. Will they succeed? Only time will tell.
