A story of political ambition, greed, love and revenge, The Reluctant Trader is a fast-paced thriller following fictional events in just one week at the end of January 2016, the start of what, by any yardstick, was an extraordinary year in British politics. When disgraced former soldier, Adam Fraser, goes to work for well-connected tax-exile and billionaire, Ricky Al-Shawabi, as an oil trader, he finds himself at the centre of a British operation trying to expose Al-Shawabi as a criminal tax evader. However, the tentacles of Al-Shawabi’s operation reach high into the British political system. Before he realises it, Fraser is embroiled in Ricky’s deadliest deal yet: supplying laundered money to ISIS in Iraq. When the British authorities threaten to shut down the whole operation, little does anyone realise what the political repercussions are likely to be in Downing Street. This fast-paced political mystery is set in London, Monaco and Iraq. It provides a fictional backstory behind some of the extraordinary events that shaped British politics in 2016.
