"Spectrum" is the codename for MI6's sneakiest, most lethal female agents - or was.
Ayesha Khan may be lethal but subtle, she is not. Fuelled by violence, misandric sex, and the latest Charli XCX singles, the newest Spectrum enjoys her license to kill enemies of the state and the odd pedestrian.
But in January 2017, the game has changed. MI6 does not trust the incoming President in America and certainly doesn't want him having the newest bit of semi-legal spyware from Silicon Valley. Spectrum has been sent to erase Parashift's latest app.
Unfortunately for her, America is an allied state with agencies MI6 wants to stay friends with. Spectrum faced a globe-trotting conspiracy last time but now she faces her greatest challenge yet:
Having to do actual spywork without being violent.
Operation White Heat is the second Spectrum from Ian Absentia and Charles E.P. Murphy, but easy for new readers to pick up if they're new readers that like swearing.
Charles E.P. Murphy is from the UK; he started writing one day and nobody's got him to stop. He has currently written and co-written five self-published books and various novellas, short stories, and comic strips for Sea Lion Press, FutureQuake Press, Malefaction, and Sergeant Frosty Press.
