br>She and Robert succeed, but for some reason her masters seem more interested in destroying it. She is determined to find out why, but her efforts are thwarted when she is remanded in custody on a charge of murder.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING
br>"A Bodyguard of Lies is the third part of thriller trilogy charting the ups and downs of a female member of the Secret Service. The plotting is taut, the pace fast, the surprises well delivered, all set within a credible evocation of the workings of the world of spooks. As the title implies, the novel explores the dilemma between individual morality (or the lack of it), and the moral sacrifices that may be demanded by the Service. A good, thoughtful and entertaining read."
br>"Douglas Renwick has done it again, this third book is probably the best of the trilogy, I found it difficult to put down and though it apparently finishes the Eleanor story in a very exciting and satisfactory manner, I shall be very sorry to say goodbye to her."
br>"It's a very good book with more thought provoking issues to consider and debate. Would like to see a 4th book in which we see how Eleanor handles the challenges and compromises."
br>"A real page turner with some electrifying descriptions and an unexpected twist at the end. Very sad to have reached the end of this trilogy. Eleanor's character develops wonderfully throughout this book, you feel you really do get to know her and for that reason I will miss reading about her."
br>"I have read all three books of the trilogy and have enjoyed them enormously. The story got better as I went along and I missed the characters and their lives when I came to the end. The books were a good read with a fascinating insight into different world."
br>"I have read all three books and enjoyed each one . However I enjoyed this last one most. The central character, Eleanor is believable, likeable and very human. There is an excellent ending, I couldn't recommend the trilogy more highly."
br>"This is a cracking good read, swept away by an avalanche of snow and conspiracy theories from the first page."
br>"Excellent reading, 'real life fiction' if that's possible."
br>"I have read the trilogy and thoroughly enjoyed them all. I found the story line gripping and full of unexpected scenarios . The first book, with it's numerous conspiracy theories, was the most interesting as it made me think about the broader contemporary issues that are going on at the moment."
br>"Having read all three books, I will miss Eleanor Braithwaite! Douglas Renwick has done it again; he keeps us on the edge of our seats until the very end."
br>"This was one of the most exciting, fast moving, books I have ever read, and very believable. Would make a fantastic film and it is about time we had a female equivalent of Bond!"
br>"Thoroughly enjoyed reading this, the third of the trilogy. A story to make you think in these days of fake news; what's fact and what is fiction. I've enjoyed all three, this the most."
br>"I read very infrequently thus always have to go back a few pages to recapture the story.That method was totally unnecessary with "A Bodyguard of Lies"; I could not put it down. A terrific read!"
br>"I've been waiting for the third book in the trilogy and I must say it was worth it. Another excellent read, highly recommended."
br>"Sad to reach the end of such an excellent trilogy, which became more absorbing with each book. Interesting characters and ingenious plots."
