Synopsis

One Hell of a Victim is an adventure story set in Northumberland and New England in 1998.

George Radman is a 55-year old loner. Very much a 'you leave me alone and I'll leave you alone' kind of man, he lives in an isolated croft on a moor in Northumberland. One night, three men enter his croft uninvited, looking for someone they've been chasing. The next morning two gruesome murders are committed in the croft during Radman's absence and he is accused of the crimes. Radman is arrested and imprisoned. He dreams of escape and contemplates suicide. And then, wholly without warning, someone he doesn't know breaks him out of custody and flies him to New England. Within hours of his arrival in the United States two attempts are made to kidnap him. The first fails; the second succeeds. He finds himself being interrogated by a religious sect who call themselves Abramites. Marked for execution, he is helped to escape by a firm of private detectives. Radman agrees to assist the detectives with their investigation into the cult. To that end they fly him home to Northumberland where the leader of the sect -- a man who calls himself Abraham Reborn -- is based. Radman contacts Abraham and is manoeuvred by him into a final confrontation which turns out to be far more lethal than anyone could have imagined.

If you'd enjoy reading a story about the dark side of religious devotion, and what happens when it comes up against a tough man-of-the-moors, someone who asks only to be left in peace, someone who is determined to shape his own destiny and has a temper to match, this novel will provide a few hours of credible escapism.
