The New Persuaders
Brett Sinclair has money, polish, and a talent for control. Danny Wilde has instinct, nerve, and a habit of running toward trouble. Together—usually at the insistence of the enigmatic Judge Fulton—they navigate a world where nothing is quite what it seems, and danger rarely announces itself in advance. From Riviera intrigue and high-stakes racing to shadowy London backrooms and remote Scottish lochs, their cases begin with coincidence and end in something far more deliberate.
In this modern reimagining, charm meets consequence. A poisoned dinner reveals a targeted assassination. A missing heiress hides in plain sight. A luxury casino masks a criminal network. A sniper pins two men in a glass office tower, while elsewhere a secret company offers death as a bespoke service—for a price. As the stakes rise, so too does the cost of getting involved. Some cases are playful. Others are darker. None are simple.
Fast-paced, sharply plotted, and driven by the unmistakable chemistry between its two leads, The New Persuaders is a collection of stylish, intelligent short stories where wit and danger go hand in hand—and where, no matter how carefully the game is played, someone is always one move away from losing.
