Make This A Mini-Series!!

Mike Huddersfield is working for Fear Incorporated, a highly secretive organisation that sends its employees on missions to hotspots all over the world. Each mission is filmed and the footage is shown to the organisations’ members for their pleasure. It’s an extremely dangerous job, and a lot of the employees don’t make it back home. Those who do however are rewarded handsomely.

Mike has just been given his latest assignment. He’s to spend seven days on North Sentinel Island, home to one of the last uncontacted tribes in the world. The members of the tribe are highly aggressive, and any intruder who is caught setting foot on their island is killed. Mike however is confident that he can survive.

FEAR INCORPORATED by Hervey Copeland is a fantastic suspense-thriller, and I sincerely hope the author considers turning this into a mini-series about the various jobs Mike has performed over the years. The character proves to be the perfect narrator for this story, the kind of guy you would listen to, if you ever met him in person.

The best way I can describe this: imagine a combination of The Belko Experiment, Escape Room and The Condemned, written with the flair of Stephen King and the intensity of Tom Clancy. Definitely making my Top 2020 list.

As always,
