For two of Nick Stone's closest ex-SAS comrades, it was to have been the perfect, victimless crime.But when they're double-crossed and the robbery goes devastatingly wrong, only Stone can identify his friends' killer and track him down.
As one harrowing piece of the complex and sinister jigsaw slots into another, Stone's quest for vengeance becomes a journey to the heart of a chilling conspiracy, to which he and the beautiful Russian investigative journalist with whom he has become ensnared unwittingly hold the key.
Ticking like a time-bomb, brimming with terror and threat, Andy McNab's latest Nick Stone adventure is a high-voltage story of corruption, cover-up, and blistering suspense - the master thriller writer at his electrifying best.

"An audible page turner!"
I really enjoyed this book and devoured it very short order. I like Andy McNab's style and characters, so may be a bit biased. The plot is pacey and has several twists and the characters are generally likeable. The plot gets a little far fetched in a couple of places (in my view), with the main character travelling quickly between countries, but it made it full of action, which was good.
I also liked the narrator - quite a refined voice at the time and initially I didn't think his voice would work with how I envisaged the character, but he grew on me quickly and I now want to hear more.
