One Life Is Not Enough Raymond Knight Read

When life goes really badly wrong, we all shake our fists at the heavens or simply cry out in desperation "Why me?" Yeah?Well, I did all that, and it didn't help one iota. My name is Hamilton, Greg Hamilton and I am a retired MI5 agent who was living quietly and peacefully on the island of Sardinia. That is, until one day, I was persuaded by the local police chief in Porto Cervo, the fashionable millionaire's resort on the island, to do a little job for him. It was a simple security commission for a gala dinner to be given by a wealthy American business tycoon, Ryker Bergotti, on his luxury motor yacht moored in the marina. I initially said no. But half a million dollars for just one night's work ! It seemed too good to be true? It was. The next morning, as I lay in my hospital bed nursing four bullet wounds, I realised, just as I had said earlier, sometimes life goes really wrong. What I didn't know was that when I was discharged from hospital, things would actually get even worse.
