CYBER LIES is the last book in the trilogy, which started with OVERT LIES, followed by COVERT LIES.The story picks up from the end of COVERT LIES, with Harry Baxter, an MI6 officer, returning from Pakistan to Vauxhall Cross, MI6 HQ, for re-assignment in January 2007.The Security Service, MI5, are desperately trying to track both Soviet and Chinese agents within the UK, who are focussing their efforts on penetrating the major Energy companies, their gas routeing from Europe and insufficient storage facilities, potential power generation sabotage, with the risk of the lights going out in the UK.Concurrently, the Russian Mafia, Bratva, are planning a multi-billion dollar heist on the Energy Futures Markets around the world.MI6, because of the international scope of the operations, are therefore working in concert with MI5.Harry’s relationship with Anna Harrison continues under pressure, with her assignment as Mossad Liaison Officer within the French DGSE in Paris.Interwoven relationships between members of the Foreign Office, Eurasian agents, Russian and Chinese State Security personnel and the Bratva, provide a fast paced, highly complex scenario, challenging MI5 and MI6, now operating under new Director Generals, to work together, as never before, in Defence of the Realm. The matrix of complexity resembles a game of three-dimensional chess, with internal competition within a number of the foreign intelligence communities, creating a further level of risk in an already high stakes game.
