Description
My profession of investigative journalism takes me many places all over the globe. I investigate people, I spin factual stories. I present facts to the public and I help them form opinions on matters of varied interests. My base has always been in a very unlikeliest of places; Sharm el-Sheikh (Bay of the Sheikh), situated at the southern tip of Sinai Peninsula, at the confluence of the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Aqaba, all part of Red Sea. Unlikeliest, because the town is just a tourist place, though of immense strategic importance. Mount Catherine rises grandiosely in the North. Looking over the Straits of Tiran, which is a narrow passage between the Sinai and Arabian Peninsulas, this once sleepy town of a few thousand soon got converted into an important Naval Base of the Egyptian Defence Forces. It may sound a bit weird but the original Sharm was founded as an Israeli settlement by the name of Ofira when the Jewish State occupied the region between 1967 and 1982. Nothing much happens here. The current population does not even touch the figure of 100,000. However, clandestine activities always remain afoot. It is here that my employer, an investigative agency of proven credentials, has its offices. I observe things around me critically and monitor most major events unfolding on the world stage very closely. This tendency of mine gives me new perspectives on my environment and opens many new vistas, enabling me to write. I hope this collection of 10 stories, which have been set in different places, would find favour with my readers.With the passage of time, I intend writing more stories, some factual and some fiction, but all spread over different continents and set in different countries. Human behaviour across the spectrum of diverse cultures is best observed through books.
