| Summary Note |
Follow Alfred Pennyworth, a former British SAS soldier in his 20's, who forms a security company in 1960's London and goes to work with young billionaire Thomas Wayne, years before he becomes Bruce Wayne's father. With England balancing on the brink of a civil war, the first skirmishes of an undeclared secret war have begun. In this world of secrets and betrayals, we find Alfred Pennyworth. After nine years in the British Army, his training with the SAS has taught him to be a cynical optimist--expecting the worst, but knowing that he can handle it. Now, thrown back into the civilian world, Alfred's looking for freedom, security...and love. With his SAS mates, "Bazza" and "Dave Boy", Alfred's in search of an independent life, being "his own man" where he doesn't take orders and never has to kill anyone. That's easier said than done, for a man with his skillset. |
