Sowerbutt's Fight

Men rushed into the lock-up; dockers, armed with coshes and knives, moving forward warily. Tied to a pillar on one side was Lee Gerard, haggard, bruised, bloody.

Sowerbutt's Shotgun


The blast of the shotgun, in the hands of a docker standing guard, missed Sowerbutt and One-Line by inches. One of the lads behind them caught a couple of pellets in his shoulder.

Sowerbutt's Lamppost

The length of cast-iron lamppost with handles welded onto it would have tested the strength of most men. . With one mighty swing, One-Line crashed it into the doors of the lock-up.

Sowerbutt's Knife

Sowerbutt stretched his hand out to Spaghetti who gave him his German flick-knife which he had bought from a Blackshirt at the Chelsea headquarters some years earlier. He flicked the razor-sharp blade open and stroked Shapiro’s cheek.

Sowerbutt's Shooters


Sowerbutt sat on the desk and pushed the telephone towards Shapiro. “Be my guest, call the stoppers. Looking forward to hearing you explain the restricted goods in your warehouse. That crate of shooters and the medical supplies are naughty.”

Sowerbutt's Rag-Doll

At the door, they were blocked by a large docker whom One-Line grabbed and threw onto the street. The docker aka rag-doll landed on the bitumen with a crunch.

Sowerbutt's Smugglers


“The Mafia runs Sicily. The fishing boats take across food and paraffin to Malta, the British turn a blind eye – every bit helps. Darby Sabini’s boys make good money – couple of them are staying in Valetta to sell the stuff.”

Sowerbutt's Black Market

“Another thing, Mr Sorbay,” Nero said. “A Mexican ship has tied up in the West India. She ran the crossing by herself, but was untouched. Their flag is the same as the Eyetie one. Her captain has brought some stuff to trade on the side."

Sowerbutt's Body


“Hendry Piper, your dead body, Sorbay. August Torma, at the Estonian embassy in Queens Gate, identified him as a small-time Tallinn crook.  When the tensions with the Soviets started, Piper saw his chance. Visited the pro-Jerry businessmen and blackmailed them. The Red Army invaded and Piper handed over his victims anyway and collected a bounty."

Sowerbutt's Fortress


Churchill growled. “Our resources may be meagre but the will of the British people is unbreakable. Our island fortress will stand firm against this monstrous tyranny that has cursed Europe until, in God’s good time, the New World stands shoulder to shoulder with us.”

Sowerbutt's Case


The slight military man sipped his whiskey. “Nasty piece of work, Vershinin, blood on his hands. When we have used him for our own ends, we could leave him be. Or shoot him, motor car accident, that sort of thing. I’m inclined to let him be and have a case against him up our sleeve.”

Sowerbutt's Script


“A good script with attention to detail,” Sowerbutt said. “No doubt that McGaskie and friend took the bait. We made sure that his blindfold was loose when he left."

Sowerbutt's Visit

Gerard said: “I have visited your East England, sir, after my landing and contacted the several units prepared to act. They are ready to seize landing areas on the day and assist our paratroops."

Sowerbutt's Blanket

In a cold army hut, Sergeant Sneed was sitting with a blanket over his legs at a well-polished walnut inlay desk that he had borrowed from the officers’ mess.

Sowerbutt's Blindfold

“Take your blindfolds off, lads, make yourselves at home. There’s tea and biscuits,” said Sowerbutt who was sitting in an armchair.

Sowerbutt's Punch

Racing up the steps to the delivery office, Spagfhetti saw Spano frog-marching a bewildered worker out of the warehouse. A single punch from One-Line floored another man who was swinging a crowbar.

Sowerbutt's Lorry

Spaghetti leapt down from the back of the Bedford MW lorry as it backed towards the dock inside Shapiro’s warehouse on East Ferry Road. Panda, One-Line, Cocker, Spano and Jaksie quickly followed.

Sowerbutt's Worry


Bracken sipped his champagne. “We haven’t got much time, Sorbay. The sooner the Russkies get hold of the letter, the sooner they’ll entangle themselves with Jerry and their bombers will fly east. The Old Man is worried about the effect of the Blitz on our war economy – and the British people, of course.”

Sowerbutt's Letter

“His Majesty was very excited when he heard news of the second letter from the English. He ordered a Savoia-Marchetti airliner for me. An escort of Fiat Arrows from Tirana."

Sowerbutt's Harbour

Sitting outside his favourite café overlooking Mandraki Harbour, the colonnello from the 2nd Blackshirt Division smiled at his glass of Chevalier de Rodos.
