The Assessment

Some jobs are dangerous. Some job interviews are explosive.

Security consultant and former Royal Marine Commando, Captain Ryan Kaine expects his crew to be the best. When executing classified government military contracts, they need to be.

The latest group of potential recruits are enthusiastic. By the time Kaine's finished with them, they'll know enthusiasm alone doesn't cut it in a war zone.

When ‘retired' soldier, Arthur ‘Big Jenks' Jenkinson attends one of Ryan Kaine's recruitment trials, he thinks he's a shoo-in. Powerful, tough, and arrogant, Big Jenks strides into the assessment centre and asserts himself from the start. He's ready to grind ‘Captain Runt' under his boot heel and show the little pipsqueak what a real soldier can do.

Big Jenks in for a rude awakening.

The raging fire of arrogance meets the ice cool hand of experience in this Ryan Kaine origins novella.
