J.R. Scott

Picture
James R. Scott was born in Glasgow but relocated to England with his family during his teens. For almost two decades James has enjoyed a successful career in public service, and in his spare time is a keen motorcyclist, mechanic and photographer. He also travels extensively in the United States and those experiences encouraged him to start writing. After becoming a finalist in The Independent Author’s Network 2016 Book of the Year competition with his first novel The Arena: The Awakening, this inspired him to continue that storyline into this highly anticipated sequel. He now lives just outside London in Berkshire.

The Arena: The Awakening

Picture
​Assassination Thriller

When a corrupt agency takes away someone’s life for their own agenda, what happens when the asset they sunk millions of dollars into creating, starts to want their old life back? 

“Give me a minute,” he replied, burying his head into his monitors and keyboard. After a few minutes and what sounded like a thousand words being typed, he looked up above his monitor and asked “What happened to Dr Cooper, Laura?” 

With that statement, Laura saw an opportunity to test how comfortable Taylor was with her and also to see if he had any ethical issues with what she had done. 

“Dr Cooper?” she exclaimed. “Dr Cooper accidently got shot in the head after being caught lying to someone he shouldn’t.” 

She could see Taylor's full face as he sat upright in his chair. You could see that his mind was racing, but after a few seconds he smiled and quietly said “So cool,” and returned to his monitors.

A number of assassinations take place around the New York, Boston and New Jersey areas. Hank has been called in to investigate. They appear to be professional ‘hits’. Is this the work of a highly trained assassin?
