What are the elements that dictate chance? Is there room for conjecture about what superior force directs our fate? Could there be some unknown element, among the mysterious fog that envelops the mountains of Scotland, that determines the fate of these three boys?
Set in the year 1985. One year after the attack on the Grand Hotel in Brighton, which almost destroyed the entire Margaret Thatcher cabinet. The IRA again enjoys another opportunity to achieve an unprecedented atrocity. The Cold War is still in its heyday. NATO, is about to kick off all of Europe, a crucial war manoeuvres, against the Soviet bloc. The submarine HMS Resolution, moored in the base Faslane, (Scotland) equipped with the Polaris system, with Ballistic Missiles, has a key role in the simulation of war games.
The convergence and the crossing of the roads in the lives of three young people, born on the same day, but thousands of kilometres away, provides the conduit, so that ETA and IRA together, cause a blood bath, with global implications for the peace. Malevolent Karma, is a story of love, manipulation and betrayal, directed by cynical and unscrupulous adults, about the innocence and naivety of the three young people.

Excellent Book, Don’t miss this one
This is an excellent book, brilliantly written and very well researched.
A non stop page turner, Once I had started I couldn’t put it down “riveting plot with many twists and turns” I look forward to reading more from this Author.
R G Cowley –
Tense and rewarding thriller
Set in the ’70s and ’80s this novel hooks you from the start,as, chapter by chapter, it introduces us to 3 sparate and non-connected lads raised in different countries in the ’70s,and whose destinies and fates are inevitably to cross,not always in the happiest of circumstances.
It’s a long and bumpy ride,not always with travel companions whose company you’d enjoy, but at the end, worth the time spent getting there.
