The Shackleton Affair: Book Viral - Shortlisted 2015 - Michael J. Gill

. .

Résumé :
Former MI6 operative Raymond Armstrong is approached by a colleague to help investigate a curious robbery. Only a rare scotch whisky, jewellery and one masonic item were taken.
A series of incidents leads Raymond back to his ex-employer, who strongly advise him to drop the inquiry. Raymond suspects the British government have a secret department within the national archives that is protecting sensitive historic facts. Raymond is convinced the masonic piece is a direct connection to Sir Ernest Shackleton, the heroic explorer and Queen Alexandra of Great Britain.
The discovery of more whisky from Shackleton's Endurance expedition, followed by two more thefts, brings the story to a climatic game of cat & mouse between Raymond and the thief. Meanwhile, MI6 are watching Raymond's every move, as he gets closer to unravelling a cover up the government have kept secret for over one hundred years.
One of the most significant unsolved crimes in British history!
