The Soft Underbelly is a crime thriller set in a fictitious Caribbean country, involving murder, political instability, corruption, and the threat of war. It revolves around two investigators, local police officer Gerald Brookes, and M16 agent Fiona Sawyer, trying to find the links between the murder of a young customs agent, an attempt to overthrow the sitting prime minister, an international weapons trafficking ring one step ahead of authorities, and a mysterious expat living on the island.

ABOUT THE SOFT UNDERBELLY:
A murdered customs worker accused of stealing imported goods; collusion between competing politicians to overthrow the sitting Prime Minister; an international weapons trafficking syndicate one step ahead of British authorities; and a mysterious expat living on a small Caribbean Island.
In what used to be a tropical paradise, police officer Gerald Brookes and MI6 agent Fiona Sawyer race against time to connect these seemingly isolated dots.
But for the mastermind of these acts, there is a far more nefarious revenge plot in play. A grand design that would lead to an assassination and the resumption of a decades-old international conflict.
