Summary

A mysterious terrorist group is killing other terrorists, IRA thugs, and CIA and KGB agents, all in a bid to break the fragile peace process. Sean Dillon is the only man who can find them - if he can live long enough.

No one is more feared than January 30, the mysterious terrorist group currently holding bloody reign over the world. Their targets are random, their methods deadly.

With the carnage mounting and a US senator due to fly in to broker urgent peace talks, the Prime Minister authorises a special investigation to hunt down the terrorists with extreme prejudice.

Former enemies, now uneasy allies, Brigadier Charles Ferguson and Sean Dillon, once the most feared enforcer in the IRA, are enlisted to lead the desperate hunt. Then the senator is targeted for death. Ferguson and Dillon need to move fast, putting their trust in each other and their lives on the line in order to seek out and destroy January 30 - before they can kill again, before they start a war.

Outstanding performance

Quite slow to get started, but once on its way it’s a great adventure, worth persevering.

Very dated, similar to a Lego construction kit

Having started to read the Dillon series from approx book no 10 I decided to buy the early books from Audible, now finished book 4 Angel of Death. The books are now very dated and the construction is like a Lego bricks set i.e. Red bricks - sabotage plane, yellow - tame aggressive dog, blue British Minister is a traitor etc etc. The books will sometimes use the red bricks or maybe the blue but similar parts make up all the books. Not too keen on the narration so will skip book 5 and onwards
