The Failed Assassin
For Over-18s only. Seduction, lust, and a civil war.
He’s running away from Thatcher’s England; she’s determined to save Eastern Europe from war. They meet on the Milan to Rome train.
She seduces him, promises him a sexual adventure free of emotional ties. When they get to Rome she inadvertently lets slip some of her past, an uncomfortable truth.
Tempted by her beauty and by promises of sexual adventure, he journeys through Italy with her, until, after a night of unparalleled passion in Pompeii, she disappears.
When they meet again in Dubrovnik a year later, she finally reveals her past, and the one thing she must do to stop a civil war in Yugoslavia. Obsessed, he pledges to help her, with potentially disastrous consequences.
