In the Department 89 series, The Renegade Spy, the Scorpion is a merciless and psychopathic assassin, hired to assassinate the German chancellor. But years before, he used to be a Foreign Legionnaire, a man of honour and integrity. What happened?

The Desert Scorpion

Sergeant Jens Schacht is a soldier in the French Foreign Legion, a man with honour and integrity. So when he breaks up an attempted sexual assault on an Iraqi civilian, he can't look away. The perpetrators vow revenge, ordering an airstrike to silence Schacht and his men permanently.

But Schacht and another soldier survive the horrific attack. They both vow to track down their attackers and watch them die very slowly.

The Praetorian Scorpion

Former Legionnaire Jens Schacht is in hiding from the British Government. He secretly enters the United Kingdom, intending to hide out in the Highlands of Scotland until the heat dies down.

However, a local woman in the police witness protection program has her cover blown and her gangster husband tries to kill her. When Schacht vows to protect her, he is pursued by the local police and the SAS.

The Avenging Scorpion

Despite being wanted by two governments, Jens Schacht returns to Paris, hoping to settle down and live quietly. But a deadly encounter with French gangsters puts Schacht and his fugitive partner, Siegfried Ritter, into the line of fire once more.

But they have to watch their backs, as both the French and British Governments are determined to finally settle scores.
