Leap Of Faith (A Vested Interest Book 5) Kindle Edition
Shortly upon their arrival in the UK, Ian Allen and Andrew Forrestson find themselves behind bars for charges brought against them by a dead woman. Why are they so reluctant to tell their side of the story?
Bored rigid from attempting to enter nearly four million characters of binary alien code by hand, James takes Candice on an exploration of the old lead mine tunnels. They’re trapped behind an invisible barrier. In order to bring it down, Sam and Donna have to break James’s complicated musical nanonyte combination lock. One problem. James told Donna, the code was thirty-five numbers long. His text contained twenty-eight numbers.
Triplet Hall’s doors are reopened for Sir Richard and Marie’s wedding. Lady Triplet’s rival, the ‘black widow’ of The Order – Comtesse Danielle D’Vincent and her daughter would be among the guests. In the wee hours of the morning, Sir Richard gets a mysterious phone call – a cry for help. A few hours before his father’s wedding, Richard learns Chantelle and her
daughter are missing and presumed dead. Chantelle’s daughter was ten. Could Richard be her father?
Comtesse D’Vincent is furious! Jack is suspicious. Who’s to blame - Sir Richard, Comtesse D’Vincent, or someone else in The Order?
Donna warned them – they didn’t listen - now Kate and Tom are gone. Where did they go? What happened to them? The answers could turn Sam and Donna’s world upside down, and shake the very foundation of the Triplet Legacy.

About the author
John Chapman co-authors the successful 'A Vested Interest' romantic technothriller series with his wife Shelia.
Born in Newcastle on Tyne, England John lead a pretty boring early life. He lived in a Buddhist monastery, a civilized place with no electricity, no phone, no flush toilet, stone slab floors and a water supply which ran down a field in an open ditch. When he was sent to boarding school he accidentally set fire to it. He became a chemistry teacher but was frustrated by not being allowed to do all the interesting experiments. He changed to teaching computers in the early 80s and was delighted to find they would do exactly what they were told (unlike his pupils.)
He met his wife Shelia in an Internet chat room in 1997 - see it does work sometimes! They had problems with UK and US immigration departments and spent three years as illegal immigrants in Canada where they earned a living designing web pages. That was followed by six years of teaching in London before returning to the North to pursue a career in writing.
So what are the books about?
The A Vested Interest series is based on the need for mankind to move outward from the Earth if we are to survive as a species. At our current level of technology that's actually possible but two things need to be changed. First, we need to extend human lifespan dramatically. Using genetic technology that really is possible! The first person to live to 1,000 is probably alive now. Second, we need to stop squandering our resources and efforts on fighting and killing each other. The Earth's population as a whole don't actually want to do this. In the series we postulate that a secret organisation of powerful people are the cause of much of the strife. This cabal control governments and make more money by having the world at war. A Vested Interest suggests that the only way to turn things around is to have a more profitable enterprise for this 'Order' to turn their efforts towards. The drive into Space to escape a doomsday threat is that better alternative.

5.0 out of 5 stars What an Excellent Series!
I am reading this entire A Vested Interest series, and am just loving it! It is full of twisted characters, with lots of surprises at every turn, and I find it hard to put it down at night when I am supposed to be sleeping! It's hard to get sleepy when reading this book. I highly recommend this entire series to anyone that enjoys fantasy type characters. I almost slipped up, and said what kind of fantasy creature, but I don't wan to spoil any discoveries you will be making as you read the books!
