Every once in a while, a rare opportunity comes along; something too good to be true but too good to miss. Unfortunately, as with everything, if it sounds too good to be true, it invariably is. This doesn’t stop adventurer, explorer and professional trader in Egyptian artefacts, Jack Courageous from falling for it hook line and sinker. Jack is offered a business trip which pays well but unbeknown to him, is a one way ticket. Taking advantage of his remarkable naivety, occasional stupidity and general ignorance, his new employer, a slightly barking mad British government official, plans to sacrifice him for the greater good. The only thing standing in the way of Jack and certain death is his highly developed instinct for self-preservation and sheer dumb luck. Whilst fortune favours the brave, fortune's trollop sibling "luck" is a lot less choosy with her favours. But will this be enough? Can Jack with all his faults (and they are many), pick his way through the web of lies and deceit to find out the truth behind his trip before it's too late?Set in the mid 1930's, this is a rip roaring, globe-trotting tale of love, double cross and murder, with sex, bad teeth and small rodents thrown in for good measure. If the sound of Richard Hannay mixed with a dash of Allan Quatermain and a sprinkling of silly humour appeals to you, this book is for you.For more information on Jack Courageous, log onto jackcourageous.webs.com or follow the weekly blog on jackcourageousarchive.blogspot.co.uk . . .
