Redcap
‘Top in its field McCutchan's tales of the adventures of Commander Shaw are rivaling those of Ian Fleming' â€" J. Donald Adams, The New York Times

Esmonde Shaw, an agent for Naval Intelligence, is spending his leave relaxing in Paris, that is until he is pulled into a terrifying mission to prevent the next war by a seemingly innocent woman. REDCAP, the control centre for every nuclear weapon in the world, is on the move. Quickly returning to active duty, Shaw must board the vessel secretly carrying REDCAP to ensure its safety. However, this vessel also carries three thousand innocent civilians.

Shaw must maintain his cover whilst seeking out the mastermind behind this plot. Failure is not an option. Many innocent lives are depending on his discretion. But there are many hidden enemies keeping a close watch. Can Shaw draw them out and disable them in time? Or will their plans to dominate this unique and deadly piece of equipment succeed?

REDCAP is a gripping thriller, full of action and twists that will keep you engrossed until the final page.
