Smartly dressed, resourceful and discreet, David Gunn has undertaken assignments in Central America, the Middle East and Russia (among many other places). He comes from a service family, has an impressive collection of edged weapons and sleeps with a shotgun under his bed. He is happiest when on the move and tends not to stay in one town or city for very long. Despite this peripatetic existence, he's now completed three action-packed Death's Head novels.
