    About this ebook

    Leon Dabrowski is an outstanding physicist – a genius to those who know him. When he makes an astonishing breakthrough at a nuclear research facility, he realises that the world sits on the cusp of unlimited energy for the foreseeable future. However, Leon and his technical colleagues receive no accolades, no rewards. Instead they are dragged into the murky world of industrial espionage and treated like criminals, while Leon’s fiancée, the gifted mathematician Magda Tomala, finds herself a prisoner in a subterranean sexual fantasy complex.
    How can Leon find his beloved Magda? Abandoning his vital work, he must assist a Polish special police unit in their attempts to smash an international sex trafficking operation. 
    Working undercover from within an emerging London cult society, Leon starts his covert researches into the city’s sophisticated world of prostitution for the super-rich. But by now, he is a fugitive. Everyone wants to know the whereabouts of Leon Dabrowski – the oligarch he works for, his beleaguered colleagues, the madame of a brothel owned by the Russian mafiya . . . dangerous people are hunting for him. And there is one among them who harbours a shocking secret about Leon’s early life.

      The villagers of Yockenthwaite knew him as ‘Jack Dull’, ‘Jack Dolt,’ or sometimes just ‘The Dullard’. His real name was John Dullard, last in a long, illustrious line of Dullards, and a man – so they said – of quite miraculous stupidity. The kind of
