Overview

A gritty, unrelenting, often brutal and unflinching tale of an assassin, whose biggest enemy is his own history. Few, if any, espionage novels explain how one actually becomes an assassin. While popular culture glamorizes assassins and spies, the truth is these acts of assassination are actually murder, whether noble or not. Real spies do not drive flashy cars, do not have a glamorous lifestyle, and do not live up to any stereotypes promoted in literature or films. The real spies are ordinary people, with extraordinary history. This history is more often than not brutal, merciless and far away from the Hollywood inspired visions of cool and fashionable mystery men. The Continuum examines one such individual, from birth to adulthood, trying to explain how an innocent child grew up to become a professional killer - who made him that way and why? What is the purpose of his existence? Is he detached from the rest of us, or is he one of us, with his own consciousness fighting against his own decisions? The Continuum spans the globe, from the KGB headquarters, to the FBI conference rooms, from the African plains to the American Midwest, from Alaska to Zurich, all in an effort to catch up with the hero's past, right the wrongs, and serve justice to those who had decided on his future when he did not have a choice - or did he? There is a spiritual undertone to the story, an important aspect of all our lives - judgment is beyond our reach - we live the lives we have, but the choices we make are ours, and the consequences are part of The Continuum of life.
