Before Sowerbutt left the nightclub, he would check with Martin Poulson, the maitre d’hotel, about how his liquor stocks were faring. He knew of several London residences with fine wine cellars whose occupants had vanished to more remote parts of the country.

Sowerbutt's London
Brendan Bracken paused: “The bombing goes on night after night, Sorbay. It is relentless. Our information is that more Jerry bomber squadrons are waiting in the wings. How long can London take it?"
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Supplies
Sowerbutt said: “The East End is on a knife edge. Families won’t stand by and see their children starve. There’s very little food in the shops."

Sowerbutt's Fire
The fire that Tipper lit under the gas pipe in the empty building had done the trick. A column of blue and yellow flames shot into the air.

Sowerbutt's Generals
Churchill sat at the large table, strewn with maps. “Do they think they outrank me? The generals believe they are a law unto themselves and not subject to the will of His Majesty’s duly-elected Government."

Sowerbutt's Forger
Sowerbutt said: “Making money hand over fist. Medical exemptions by the dozen, petrol coupons, ration books, ID cards, even passports for the Jewish lads. You name it, the Scribe is raking it in.”

Sowerbutt's Smack
One-Line's palm connected with the teacher‘s face with a loud smack. His huge fist could kill a man at close range, but Sowerbutt had told his friend to be gentle.
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Truce
"You’ve broken the truce, Sorbay. We’ll be after you ten-fold, we’ll sweep you Blackshirt bastards from the streets of Poplar like horse dung."
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Policy
“You will get used to me, Mr Witherspoon. I treat my friends fairly, my enemies regret their decision.” Polly smiled.
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Letter
A carbon-copy of the letter is contained in an acid-free archival storage box, kept under tight guard in an anonymous facility in the Home Counties, designated under the Official Secrets Act of 1989.

Sowerbutt's Hotel
Peter de Wolkova looked around his new home, a double room in a shabby hotel not far from Kings Cross station. It was a big improvement on the stinking solitary cell in Brixton Prison.

Sowerbutt's Messages
"We never had any dealings with the Italian Embassy when it was open. Too busy with their wine and women. Messages were passed through Spanish diplomats sympathetic to the cause of peace and who had contacts in Berlin."
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Security
“Never seen such security - barbed wire, trip wires, electrified wire, broken glass, traps, strips of nails, armed guards. I even spotted a couple of sound detectors. Wonder which of the 20 bedrooms His Gloriousness Ambassador Maisky kips in?"
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Car
The plump man’s eyes bulged. Downstairs in the yard, a giant of a man, holding a metal bar, stood beside a highly-polished Model-T Ford. It was Mr Witherspoon’s pride and joy.

In the moonlit night sky, the twin-engine Jerry aircraft could be seen circling Barton airfield, its undercarriage down and its lights flickering in the agreed recognition code.

Sowerbutt's Photographs
“When I was a young woman in Moscow, I worked part-time for the Okhrana, the Tsarist secret police. I entertained foreign diplomats, businessmen and so on. Photographs were taken on occasion. With the Revolution, the old files were taken over by the Reds."

Sowerbutt's Escape
The two men were out of the back window of the terrace and across the garden wall into the adjacent clothing factory site within seconds. Their rubber-soled boots had not made a sound. Dogs across the neighbourhood had started their cacophony after the gunshot.
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?
Sowerbutt's Gunshot
The crack of the gunshot filled the bedroom, followed by a deathly silence; Sowerbutt watching aghast as a small black hole with blood welling out appeared in the forehead of the man bound in the chair.
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Forger
The Scribe, who operated out of a small garage in Peckham, was the best forger in the East End. Since the war started, he had cornered most of the profitable market for forged medical exemptions, petrol coupons, ration books and approvals for the myriad of wartime regulations.
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Stranglehold
One-Line, a giant of a man, held the skinny youth by the neck at arm’s length, his legs kicking in the air. “You’re strangling me, mister, I can’t breathe.”
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?Sowerbutt's Envoy
The SS Brigadefuhrer stood. “My trip to England has been a success; the Reichsmarschall will be pleased. When I return to the Reich I will report personally to him at Carinhall about our progress.”

Sowerbutt's Parachute
“It was when we were out searching in the fields, the officer didn’t say for what. A couple of the boys caught a rabbit, but I noticed somebody had been digging down near the river. I went back there later when it was all quiet and found a big bundle of silk. A parachute.”
https://www.amazon.com/Colour-Red-Deal-Sowerbutt-Novels-ebook/dp/B00RL9FGKM?
Sowerbutt's Finery
Sid Sirrett, the genial landlord, leant over the bar of the Leather Bottle in East Hyde. “What’s all this about some silk, Alf? You being an old bachelor and all. I didn’t think you were into ladies’ finery.”

Sowerbutt's Warning
"Our intelligence suggests that tonight is going to be a heavy night. London again and perhaps some other cities, judging from what we know of the disposition of the Jerry bombing fleets. Perhaps another warning from Rollmop Goering, talk or lose London.”

The slap could be heard outside in the bar. The angry redhead leant over the desk, her finger inches from Sowerbutt’s surprised face. “You bastard. We’re partners, so you said, you discuss things with me first."

The Prime Minister refilled his glass. “Find the Jerry, Brendan, track him to his lair and clear up the mess. Trailing our coat may save the Empire, but the risks are high."

Sowerbutt's Beer
With all the VIPs wandering around the village, the landlord had hurriedly locked the stables at the back of the pub where he did his brewing, fearing Customs and Excise might pay a visit too.
