Ambush by Thomas (NC-17)
Hi, I’m Kiwisue and I’ll be driving the Capri for The Professionals in June. I hope to rec stories with a little something for everyone, from light & humorous to dark & dangerous. My first rec is definitely of the latter variety.
Fandom: THE PROFESSIONALS
Pairing: Bodie/Doyle

Author Website: http://mediafans.org/thomas/
Why this must be read:
This was one of the first Pros stories I ever read and I was enthralled. It’s a deeply dark tale of anger, denial, lust and (?perceived) betrayal.
In this story Bodie & Doyle’s 7 year partnership in CI5 is turning sour… “Doyle wasn’t as certain of Bodie as he once would have been. Too many close calls lately, not counting this one. And Bodie’s persistent silence did nothing to reassure him”.
The tension created by the conflict between Bodie & Doyle during the operation which opens the story is terrific, on-the edge stuff. We are reminded forcibly that the Lads are a pair of difficult sods and that life in CI5 is bloody, treacherous and short. And if you can’t rely on your partner……
In ‘Ambush’, the Professionals’ staple ingredients, guns and violence, help weave an erotic web that catches first Doyle, then Bodie in its filaments. As for how the story ends, I find it can be read a number of ways, although I prefer the more hopeful interpretation. Read it and see for yourself!
