The Isolation Of Men

A collection of eleven stories about power, intrigue, disaster and redemption. A man is caught up in a vicious cat and mouse game between the authorities and a heretical sect. A failed assassin finds refuge in a remote lakeside villa. Will retribution follow? An officer deserts the British army and joins a group of fanatics attempting to overthrow the Manchu dynasty. A journalist investigating a murder in a country racked by civil war, gets embroiled in matters outside his control. A billionaire plans a radical solution to the problem of ageing. Taking the reader on a journey through different times and places from ancient China, Renaissance Italy, the Russia of Ivan the Terrible, and the Wild West, to present day England and the United States, The Isolation of Men chronicles the intriguing, unexpected, and sometimes extreme effects on various individuals of becoming alienated from the societies they live in.
