Kyle Mills Rising Phoenix
Coronet 2003-05-26 0340734221 / 9780340734223 Paperback Fair n/a Paperback
Fair in publisher's rubbed and creased decorated wrappers. Available in our UK premises for prompt dispatch worldwide.An explosive thriller that launches a new genius for taut, compulsive adventure writing ... I urge you to pick up Rising Phoenix' -- Tom Clancy 'Absorbing ... A fine thriller with memorable characters and enough twists to keep readers turning pages ... Mills is definitely someone to watch' - Publishers Weekly 'In the world of political thrillers, I have the feeling that young Kyle Mills will soon be a very big player' -- Frederick Forsyth Special Agent Mark Beamon is a maverick. His open disdain for the FBI's rules - and Directors - has exiled him to a no-profile post in the boondocks. But when a shadowy right-wing group starts flooding America's emergency rooms with dead and dying, Beamon is summoned back to Washington. Teamed with an icily efficient female field agent, he is given the thankless task of stopping the slaughter--even though millions of Americans secretly approve of it. As the body count rises, Beamon realizes there is something eerily familiar about his adversary, reminding him of the coldest killer he ever encountered - not a criminal but a law enforcement colleague. And for the first time, he wonders why he was chosen for this assignment. Was it his expertise - or his expendability?

Mills, Kyle Smoke Screen AND Storming Heaven
Tesco Stores Ltd 2004 0340890754 / 9780340890752 Paperback New n/a Paperback
New. 2 volumes. Smoke Screen AND Storming Heaven. Fine in publisher's decorated wrappers. Available in our UK premises for prompt dispatch worldwide.In Smoke Screen Kyle Mills produces a deliciously sly fantasy on what would happen if the tobacco industry saw sense. His hero, Trevor, is a thirtysomething trustafarian whose eventual wealth depends on his staying part of the family firm--an integral part of Big Tobacco. His capacity for useful candour gets him promoted to a senior PR job at just the point where a maverick CEO tries to blackmail the US government and people by shutting down the entire tobacco industry--to demonstrate that multi-billion lawsuits and endless regulation aside, America cannot do without tobacco. Trevor, though, has a different agenda--presumably Mills' own--which is to bring common sense and humanity to the debate; he also wants to hang onto his personal wealth and get the woman he loves--which is harder than it sounds, since she is an anti-smoking advocacy lawyer. ... At times, this is a talky book, and has some slightly artificial melodrama about Serbian tobacco smugglers; Trevor is an attractive and entertaining advocate for his political positions and Mills manages to involve us in all the political and boardroom chicanery that his charm and honesty cut through like a cigar clipper. --Roz Kaveney --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. ... Praise for Kyle Mills: 'If you haven't read Kyle Mills yet you should - I do' -- Tom Clancy 'Kyle Mills is that special kind of thriller writer who knows how to keep an ominous chill lurking on almost every page' -- Allan Folsom 'In the world of political thrillers, I have a feeling that young Kyle Mills will soon be a very big player' -- Frederick Forsyth --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
