Reviews

A blackmail story that takes us along a path less trodden than often seen: Instead of using sexuality as the grounds for blackmail as often occurs in slash stories, this text exposes Bodie to blackmail for something that happened when he was in the Army in Northern Ireland. The story takes us along with the Lads as they deal with the implications and effects of a CI17-engineered plan to discredit CI5, giving us a look at an unromanticised CI5 and a Cowley who is tough and conniving, "colder than crushed ice". The story has no graphic sex, but the emotions are deep and layered as Bodie and Doyle handle revolutionary change in both their personal and professional lives, all conveyed in Irene's smooth and inspired style.
