Bladon's Revenge

On Cup Final Day, before the match begins, proceedings are interrupted by the deadliest shot in football history - a round from a sniper rifle intended for the Prime Minister. With the nation's security services severely comprised, who should the PM call but his friend, the SAS veteran, Bladon? With the help of his beautiful wife Lexi, Bladon begins the hunt for the assassin and in the process discovers that a ruthless enemy has obtained a gun so powerful it can destroy missiles in flight and lay down devastating fire against any opposing forces. With Bladon in hot pursuit, and his quarry intent on reaping destruction, a final confrontation is inevitable. Bladon's Revenge is the keenly anticipated follow up to John Parkin's Bladon's Puzzle. John Parkin was Senior Partner in a firm of Chartered Accountants for over thirty years, and after retirement published his first book, Bladon's Puzzle. He lives in Derbyshire, where Bladon's Revenge is set, with his wife Margaret. They work together in their local church and they have two married children in Italy and Kent, and twin grandchildren.
