Within the United Kingdom there has always existed a secret organisation, answerable only to the residing Prime Minister. It has no official budget because nothing it does can be recorded in any archive. Its intelligence sources are MI6 and MI5 but it is part of neither.
It is England's oldest secret service and, because it is unknown, it is above and beyond the laws of the land. Its mandate is to provide solutions to problems that cannot be resolved by political means or through the law of the land.
The organisation is run by only one man, usually a former army officer of high rank. Its agents are recruited – hand-picked for their specialist talents – from various arms of the military. Some come from the ranks of the SAS, others from the Parachute battalions while others are from the Royal Marine Commando's elite SBS. All are volunteers and dedicated to the ‘Group’ they are assigned to.
For identification purposes the units are known as Groups. There are a number of such groups but none know the identities of members of the other Groups for security reasons. If a member of a Group is killed then he or she is replaced from outside but never from another group. If they are killed on foreign soil efforts are made to bring them back to Britain – if possible – if not they are left behind in unmarked graves. Their existence is always denied and their actions deniable.
Groups have been known to assassinate foreign leaders both in this country and abroad, organise rebellions to bring down unfriendly regimes, support chosen foreign governments. A Group is a deadly force made up of ordinary people who are prepared to forfeit their lives in the interests of their country.
All work to one rule: Do not get caught! They are Deniable Assets!
Professor Rosenheim has discovered a new, and safe method of converting a nuclear reaction into energy but he is held, almost a prisoner in the DDR. It is Group Alpha's mission to extract him but the mission is hampered by the fact that his whole family must come with him. In addition there are the outside influences of the SIS, Stasi, CIA, Mossad and KGB, a PLO death squad and a lone Saudi hit-man,who work to prevent the professor from escaping. Major Forrester, the leader of Group Alpha must succeed in this mission but so much is against him. Just when he feels they are safe in London a group of mercenaries launch an attack!
This is the first book in a series covering the exploits of Britain's most secret organisation accountable only to the residing Prime Minister. They are tasked to find solutions to problems that cannot be solved diplomatically or within the Law of the Land. These specialists are Deniable Assets.
