About Storm Bringer – a Bureau 7 novella by Jeremy Thomas Fox
Lawrence Lander is an operator with Bureau 7, a newly formed and secretive organisation specialising in black ops and deniable operations in the murky world of international espionage.
Only a matter of months after being recruited by the enigmatic Mr Skardon, Lander is selected for an assignment involving the theft of secret intelligence from Britain’s GCHQ intelligence-gathering organisation.
ISIS hold hostages in the Syrian desert and their whereabouts and schedule of movements are included within the stolen data. The access key is held by British-born ISIS commander Ali Ahmadi – known as “Animal Ali” – and he isn’t about to give it up without a fight.
The heart-stopping action takes place during the culmination of the operation to obtain the password allowing access to this vital information. The question is, can Lander secure the password and initiate a rescue mission before the hapless captives are savagely murdered?
The must-win finale of Operation Minx takes place against the backdrop of the worst storm England has seen for many years, and Lander is pitched against a seasoned, ambitious and desperate fanatic who will stop at nothing to prevail.
Bureau 7’s newest recruit – already struggling to come to terms with PTSD and the pressures of working with his beautiful and ambitious Israeli partner, Rivka Levine – must take on his baptism of fire and win at all costs.

Author Bio:
Who am I? I’ve often pondered that difficult question! The truth is I’m one of those cliches. You know the one: the youngster who, from the age of about six or seven, spent hours in the public library – long before Google and the current plethora of online click-of-the-mouse resources – trawling the long aisles of books. Sometimes I’d just look at the covers, enjoying the design and typography. ‘Geeksville’ or what!
Then real life took over and I joined the Army at barely sixteen before becoming a police officer in my mid-twenties. After that, I spent a lengthy period in the health & safety industry looking after of all kinds of vehicle fleets. That took me to the oil & gas sector in the Middle East where I’ve been been for almost eight years. I’m not yet a full-time writer. To be so, has always been my ambition.
I created Lawrence Lander, the hero of Storm Bringer, with the intention of writing a series of novels and novellas about his work with Bureau 7. My intention is to develop Lander’s story and inject as many thrills along the way as I can. I think my readers will also be held by the development of his relationship with Rivka Levine.
I have a lot of experience of international travel, so be assured that Lander’s work will take him on journeys to many varied and interesting parts of the world. The way the twenty-first century is developing geopolitically means that Bureau 7 and its operators will not be short of work in exotic locations.
This novella is my debut. I’ve been a published writer of short fiction for magazines and a columnist in a newspaper, but this is my first effort at a book. I intend to write a series of Bureau 7 novels and novellas and am obviously hoping that people will enjoy them. In common with many of you, I’m sure, I consider it great to make money from writing, but it’s even better in many ways simply to know that people might read and appreciate what I do. At least I hope they will!
