Kingdom Lock by I D Roberts

It is 1914 and while battles rage across Europe, three empires - the Ottoman, the German and the British - fight for dominance in the Middle East. Kingdom Lock works for the British Intelligence Service known as the White Tab and has a mission in Persia. He must stop a German spy from inciting jihad and rebellion among the population and from seizing control of the precious oilfields. But to complete his task, the Australian-born Lock has not only to battle resentment and enemies on his own side, but to keep one step ahead of the war raging around him.
'Lock is a superb character, a WW1 James Bond, if you likeStunningly enjoyable'. Books Monthly 'Well-researched, fast paced and gutsy, the novels of Kingdom Lock are blisteringly good, reminiscent of Cornwell's early Sharpe novels...' Ben Kane
