Tales of MI7

"Readers will find John Mordred to be one of the most appealing characters in fiction today." – Publisher's Daily.
Agent John Mordred gets a nasty shock when he finds himself touted in the press as one of ten potential "Ultimate Londoners". Especially given that he's spent his entire adult life trying to pass beneath the radar of just about anyone with a camera or a microphone. Yet with a five million pound first prize, plus an awards ceremony on the top floor of The Gherkin, clearly it's no joke.
MI7 looks into it as a matter of urgency, and things go from mysterious to bizarre. Uncanny, even. For a start, no one in the mainstream media or elsewhere has the faintest idea where it originated. And not even the 'candidates' themselves know how they were selected.
For Mordred, the unsolicited exposure is profoundly unwelcome. But maybe that's the whole idea.
So far, so irritating. And inconvenient.
Then the candidates start dying.
As Mordred investigates, the truth slowly emerges. And it's stranger and more deadly than anyone could possibly have imagined.
The Ultimate Londoner. Who will you vote for?
