Vengeance Wears Black
by
Seumas Gallacher
Description
Jack Calder and his
former SAS colleagues at ISP, a specialist security firm, are saved from
certain death when an ex-Gurkha is killed smothering a deadly grenade thrown
into a lunchtime Chinese restaurant in the West End of London. They learn that
murderous turf wars are raging between Asian Triads and Eastern European
mobsters vying for control of international fiefdoms of drug smuggling, people
trafficking, prostitution and money laundering.
An unexpected visit
from the highest levels of international law enforcement offers Jack and the
ISP team a means to use their black operations skills to wreak a ruthless
retaliation against the drug lords.
Unlikely partners
emerge in their onslaught against the gangs as the warring criminal factions
threaten an unholy alliance to repel them. The pursuit spins across Europe,
Turkey and North Africa before a final reckoning.

If the first two

About the Author
Seumas Gallacher was
born in the cradle of the Govan shipyards in Glasgow in the so-called "bad
old days" which were in reality the greatest of days, where everybody was
a real character of note.
An early career as a
trainee Scottish banker led to a spell in London, where his pretence to be a
missionary converting the English locals fell on deaf ears.
Escape to the Far East
in 1980 opened up access to cultures and societies on a global scale,
eventually bringing the realisation that the world is quite simply one large
extended village.
The lifelong desire to
write has resulted in The Violin
Man's Legacy, the first in the Jack Calder series.
Seumas says that
finishing that novel was one of the best feelings he has ever experienced in a
life full of rich emotions.
Vengeance
Wears Black, the second book in the Jack Calder series, was released in July
2012.
