The inhabitants of a tiny island off the coast of Scotland harbour a guilty secret – they’ve recovered a hoard of treasure from an ancient wreck. But four unscrupulous villains from the mainland find out about the treasure and set out to steal it one stormy night. Things don’t go to plan, though, and the fragile loyalty that exists between them is shattered when the islanders fight back. What follows is a nightmare of brutality and revenge. The fast-flowing violence sweeps the reader across a rugged, desolate landscape to a shocking conclusion. Brutal Revenge was published early on in James’s career under the title When Strangers Came. James is also the author of Stark Warning, Urban Myth and Arctic Blood. Praise for James Raven’s highly acclaimed thriller Rollover: “An excellent book. Extremely well crafted and readable. It has a real sting in the tale,” Fred Dinenage, one of Britain’s best loved TV presenters. “Find a quiet corner and enjoy that rare thing – a tale that makes you hold your breath,” Nick Knowles, TV presenter. “Extremely satisfying thriller and great entertainment,” Booksmonthly Review. “Rollover is a cracking crime novel. The plot is pacy and compelling – the essence of the polished ‘unputdownable’ novel,” Hampshire View Magazine. James Raven was a journalist for most of his working life. After reporting for local, regional and national newspapers he moved into television in 1982 as a news scriptwriter with TVS television where he then worked his way up to become Director of News across Meridian, Anglia and HTV. When Granada took over most of ITV he became Managing Director of Granada Sport before setting up his own production company. James spends much of his time writing and travelling and also performs magic at various venues across the country. He has three grown-up daughters and is engaged to be married for the second time.
