Wealth. Power. Fear.

Nigel Gamble is a man with everything-including a dark past. He took his name from his early business successes, but in reality, none of it was based on risk-only certain success.

Every decision Nigel has ever made in business, people, sport or life had been based on some prior knowledge.

When a stranger appears it shakes his rich world to the core.

But Nigel has been waiting for him - and preparing.

Now it's a fight to the death - there can be only one winner.

You'll find this debut novel an enjoyable read, a brilliant book. Plenty of conspiracy, crime, mystery and maybe even a little time travel - who could ask for more?

★★★★★ "A book that gets teenage boys reading again!"

★★★★★ Fantastic read!! Longer than most books I've read lately, but worth every minute. Intriguing, interesting plot...You have to continue reading beyond the first few pages...at first, I thought that the book didn't make sense, wasn't my style of reading, but I pursued a bit farther and really found myself caught up in the story and the characters!! Amazing!"

★★★★★ "Took a little while to settle into, but interesting along the way. Once the direction is revealed and the intrigue begins to build you're hooked! Forget putting this book down! With a hero I'd love to meet, a bad guy worthy of a Bond villain and a great supporting cast, you are drawn into a world of possibilities. As the tension builds, the stakes are raised and the plot winds its way through a complex series of events, the reader is challenged to keep up. But is this really the end? Where is the end and where is the beginning? More please Tim!"

★★★★★ "As soon as I read the overview on the back of the book I was completely intrigued, and as I started to read the book I became even more engrossed in the story. I loved the way the stories and characters intertwined, and it kept me guessing to the end! It was just the kind of thriller that I love, with lots of unexpected turns. A third of the way through the story goes into a completely different level that I wasn't expecting, and I was fascinated by the whole concept. It's the kind of story that you just can't imagine how it's all going to end. A really brilliant novel that keeps you guessing to the end and I loved reading it this summer and was sad to come to the end of it. I can really imagine it as a blockbuster film and it would be the sort of film that when I saw the preview. I would have to go and see! I can't wait to read the next Tim Heath novel! Absolutely brilliant."

★★★★★ "Cherry Picking was a delightful read, quick and highly entertaining. Lots of interesting twists and creative concepts. Well worth reading. A memorable story with a great conclusion. I could definitely see this book end up as a movie. Highly recommended!"

★★★★★ "Cherry Picking is a real page-turner! Great characters, suspense and plot twists all the way through. It started like a Tom Harris/Michael Dobbs political thriller, with a huge twist of sci-fi that took it to the next level. Looking forward to the next one!"

★★★★★ "Bought this book a few days ago and have been reading non-stop.This is a really good story with an author behind the book with a tale nearly as exciting!Buy this book and have a read with a story that's as good as ever I've read.Looking forward to future books!"
