Description

Spooks meets The X-Files with a generous helping of Le Carre, and a dash of Stephen King. HOW DO YOU STOP AN ASSASSIN THAT CAN'T BE KILLED Toby Greene is part of The Clown Service, a mostly forgotten branch of British Intelligence tasked with fighting paranormal threats. However, the Rain-Soaked Bride is no ordinary assassin. Relentless, inexorable and part of a larger game, merely stopping this impossible killer may notbe enough to save the day. 'The Clown Service is fun and rips along like thefinest episode of the old Avengers series' The Independenton Sunday

Reviews

there is much in this novel to entice us to take our sleeping bag to the nearest bookshop doorstep and queue early for Book 3 * The Bookbag *
In a way, we wish Adams had started writing these thirty years ago so there would be a rich vein of stories for the new fan to discover. As it is, we must be content with two very well written and funny books. At least theres a third on the way, though its a shame we have to wait for it. * Starburst magazine *
Several writers are now mining a very British style of urban magic, some more convincingly than others. For me, The Rain-Soaked Bride confirms Guy Adams position as the market leader... a thoroughly entertaining sequel, and well worth adding to any urban fantasy collection. * SFSite.com *
This is a great example of why you should stick with a series for at least two books. The first book always has to spend time setting everything up but the second book can really show you what an author is capable of (although it can go the other way, too, of course). I thoroughly enjoyed The Rain-Soaked Bride and hope there are many more books to come in this series. -- Vinca Russell * SFcrowsnest *

Author Bio

Guy Adams lives in Spain, surrounded by rescue animals. Some of them are his family. He isn't a spy, but he is a boy, so naturally he's always dreamed of being one. Having spent over ten years working as a professional actor and comedian, eventually he decided he'd quite like to eat regularly, so switched careers and became a full-time writer. Nobody said he was clever. Against all odds he managed to stay busy and since then he has written over twenty books.
