The Old-School Action Thriller has Come of Age
A British agent is brutally murdered, a President is in danger and the fate of the small West African nation, Malfajiri, lies in the balance. But does the rest of the world even care?
Enter Alex Morgan, the new star agent of INTERPOL’s Intelligence, Recovery, Protection & Infiltration Division: INTREPID.
Part-policeman, part-soldier, part-spy, Morgan and his fellow INTREPID operatives are the faceless, unassailable strangers among us; serving the world and operating beyond the influence of the most powerful nations.
In Defender of the Faith, Alex Morgan is sent on his first solo mission to hunt down the source of soviet surplus weapons haemorrhaging into Africa and Asia, but gets more than he bargained for, unraveling a complex web of deceit with links to the very heart of the British diplomatic community.
A heart-pounding, no-holds-barred chase, spanning the dark continent of Africa to the crystalline waters of Sydney, culminates in a fight to the end to stop vicious renegade intelligence officer Victor Lundt and uncover the ultimate power behind him.
If only Morgan can stay alive long enough to bring them all to justice.

From the Author:
My intent in writing Defender of the Faith was to create a compelling and realistic adventure with a liberal dose of escapism.
I grew up on the stories of Fleming and Maclean and Forsyth and Conan Doyle, and the common denominator was that they had all, at some time, served their country.
Setting off on my own journey, I've had some incredible experiences along the way, like leading troops through operations in Africa and the Americas, training the Botswanan army and parachuting into Holland for the 50th anniversary of the Arnhem Jump.
I write adventure stories for the generation who grew up reading the same classics that I did, but like me, wanted something new. I also write with the next generation in mind, the young guys who are just discovering action thrillers.

A Return to the Old-School Action Thriller...
Chris Allen writes escapist action thrillers for realists, having seen and done it all.
Serving in three Commonwealth armies across two decades and four continents, one of the paratrooping elite, Chris saw the world from under a billowing parachute, often by night, entering foreign countries with the usual passport-stamping obligations eschewed.
Exiting military life with injuries, Chris transitioned into humanitarian aid work during the East Timorese emergency, served with three major law enforcement agencies in Australia, protected Sydney's most iconic landmark in the wake of 9-11 and between 2008 & 2012 was the Sheriff of New South Wales, one of the oldest law enforcement appointments in the land.
The Sword of INTERPOL: Chris's creative literary brainchild, INTREPID, is a culmination of his military and law enforcement insider experience. INTREPID is the Intelligence, Recovery, Protection and Infiltration Division: the razor-sharp, ultra-secret, black ops division of INTERPOL, established to operate across the world, regardless of borders, politics or race.
Chris lives with his wife, Sarah, and their sons, Morgan and Rhett, on Sydney's North Shore.
