The Quigley Alchemy

Under threat of divorce, Danny Quigley, a trooper in the UK’s elite Special Forces (SAS), takes his discharge and goes to work in financial services. Struggling to make it work, he hears about the massively successful insurance executive, C. C. Courtney, who has mysteriously disappeared, taking his business secrets with him.

Determined to learn his success formula, Danny embarks on a journey to find him, which takes him to Ireland. There, Courtney tries to help him come to terms with and put aside his violent past using NLP techniques. However, Danny’s past as an efficient killing machine catches up with him in the person of a rogue MI5 agent, Colonel Crawford, who wants Danny back for one last mission: to assassinate a leading Northern Ireland politician. Crawford will stop at nothing to accomplish his aims including the abduction of Danny’s wife, Fiona, and his eight-year-old daughter, Allison.

On the fatal morning, Danny is sitting with a sniper’s rifle, looking through a window at his target while behind him and tied to a chair, is the woman he loves. A team of armed men cover both of them.
