Logue"I could not stop reading until the end..." - Amazon.com reviewer"World War Z meets 24 in Book Form!" - amazon.co.uk reviewer Why is rolling news showing footage of US Marines holding off an armed assault on the White House? Where have the Secret Service taken the President and why has the Vice President invoked the 25th Amendment? Why has US Space Command mobilised its strategic reserve and put it into orbit? Crisis point is a stand alone novella set in the same near future world as Perfects (published late 2016).

This is a future where some Americans have realized that spending their blood and treasure as the world's policemen hasn't been effective and have decided that someone else should take a turn. In the middle of the 21st Century Mike Duff is a career officer of US Space Force. The military are getting cut, and the defense contractors aren't happy about it. Mike is a patriotic American, loyal to the Constitution and proud of his country, but he doesn't like what he sees the politicians doing.

    Henry Ashton knew he could never allow his desires the freedom they so often craved! His life had long been protected by one secret, and then controlled by another.One secret he kept was during WW2 when he became one of the army's best snipers. He was often reminded that if he ever spoke a word about his actions, he would be shot!His other secret was very personal. Due to a bad experience in his youth, for his own protection, he had long learned to hide his feelings deep within himself. This worked and as usual he had everything under control. That was until that freezing cold night, in a huge storm, high in the Italian Alps. In those conditions Henry's behaviour almost jeopardised the mission and very nearly cost him his life. Thankfully both were saved due to the experience of his young handsome Italian guide, Giovanni Sparafucile.It was a time of war when no future was guaranteed.

Will there be any hope of a future for him? For Henry the chance of a happy ending is very slim indeed - but not impossible!

    In 1958, thirteen year-old Harry Polk is looking forward to an idyllic summer spent visiting his Aunt Cordelia and Uncle Horace in Tuckalofa, Mississippi. Harry soon learns that beneath its placid surface, the town is not what it seems. Before the summer is over he will encounter the violence and injustice of segregated society, intolerance of religious and social class differences, and closely guarded family secrets. When a popular young black man is brutally murdered by the county sheriff, Harry, Cordelia, and Horace will be caught up in a series of events culminating in an act of revenge that leaves Harry emotionally scarred. Years later, when Harry is summoned to Tuckalofa to arrange the funeral of his formidable Aunt Cordelia, he is forced to confront the past that has lain dormant for years-a past in which he found himself embroiled in the vicious crime that had tragic consequences for the entire town. A compelling story inspired by real events, "e;The Ravine"e; evokes a South during the early years of the Civil Rights movement where a complex mixture of love and hate, ignorance and enlightenment, and guilt and innocence coexist. It promises to keep the reader on edge until its dramatic and unexpected conclusion. JAMES WILLIAMSON, a professor of architecture at the University of Memphis, was raised in the South in the days of segregation. His first novel, "e;The Architect,"e; was praised as "e;a thoughtful, moving novel about the realities of building, particularly when style collides with money, politics, and the demands of the less than enlightened...a lively treatise on architecture itself."e;
