Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Like any young boy born in the latter years of the Victorian age Albert Young dreamed of adventure and travelling but they were all dashed when an assassins bullet was fired in Sarajevo in 1914 and a world war began.Eager to do his bit for King and Country he joined up but soon learnt the ha…rsh reality of life in the trenches and for the next few years somehow survived where so many of his friends did not. Because of his talent with a Lee Enfield .303 rifle he was seconded to a special unit and was soon in demand as a sniper. He became so proficient that the Germans called him 'Die Viper' but eventually it took its toll and when his last victim was a young boy not old enough to have started shaving or to have known the joy of laying with a woman he asked for a transfer.Due to the compassion of his commanding office Captain Wilkinson he was first sent to a sanatorium and then spent the last few months of the war in a clerical position.Finding work afterwards was not easy but a letter out of the blue brought him back into contact with Wilkinson who had been tasked in setting up a department to deal with terrorism on the British mainland.Young is thrown into the middle of a war with Irish nationalists who are seeking to kill as many of the Cabinet as possible as well as destroying over a square mile of London with explosives that would have dwarfed Guy Fawkes' attempt.
