When British soldier, twenty-four year old Captain Alex McCloud is injured and blinded in Afghanistan during 2010, he is flown back to the U.K. for treatment at the Queen Elizabeth hospital in Birmingham. After a painful, slow recovery, during which his fiancé, Helen, ends their engagement, he is feeling angry and thoroughly dejected, with no possible hope for the future. A small ray of hope seems possible when he is offered the chance of sight using bionic implants, developed by Professor Goldman of Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, in conjunction with Augmented Reality specialist, Major Jennifer Sherlock of the C.I.A. These implants not only provide him with sight, but much, much more than he could ever have imagined or expected, proving to be of great interest both to the M.O.D. and the C.I.A. His new life as an intelligence officer based in London brings him many challenges utilising his unique abilities, particularly when he uncovers a highly dangerous mafia-like organisation.
John Stephen Raynor, born in 1944 in Oldham, Lancashire was diagnosed with a serious progressive eye condition, Retinitis Pigmentosa. ,At fifteen, he began working in Architecture, eventually becoming a software developer, marrying Marie in 1967. Self-employed by 1980, he spent long hours building up his business, moving to Sale in 1983. The work took its toll on his marriage and the couple separated in 1989. In 1991 he thought he had found a new partner, but after sixteen traumatic months the relationship ended. He kept a detailed diary. It was in the Philippines where he found his soul-mate, marrying Aleth in 1993, but experienced problems bringing her into the U.K. His wife's traumatic childhood, provided John with a wealth of material for his novel, 'A Comfortable Death' After twenty years, John used the information from his diaries to publish 'A Chronicle of Intimacies', followed by 'Who wants to be British?', the two autobiographical works describing his most traumatic period. Registered blind since the age of 35, John relies on his computer with speech synthesis for software development and creative writing.
