Red Sky at Night

When Ian Fergusson receives a call from a former colleague, Peter Brompton, telling him of the theft of expensive pigment from his company, he agrees to meet him. His initial investigations indicate that another company is the actual victim of what appears to be a well-organised scam. An anonymous threat to his life rocks Ian back and, fearing for his life and the safety of his wife and children, he sends them away to stay with friends. He takes refuge in the family's holiday caravan but when that explodes and Peter is shot and killed, Ian knows the threats are real. A further gruesome killing of one of his contacts is followed by the kidnapping of Ian's son. Ian begins to suspect the involvement of a whole raft of his associates and is uncertain whom he can trust. Warned not to approach the police if he wants to see his son again, Ian takes matters into his own hands. Believing he has identified the gang leader, he boldly, if rather foolishly, enters the lion's den with explosive consequences.
