HUNT A TRAITOR HIDDEN DEEP IN BRITISH INTELLIGENCE IN THIS HIGH-OCTANE MILITARY THRILLER

PERFECT FOR FANS OF TOM CLANCY AND ZERO DARK THIRTY

There's a traitor - a high-level Russian asset known as NOMAD - embedded deep in the heart of British intelligence. Whoever they are, they're playing a game only the dead understand . . .

When a British Special Forces team vanishes on a deniable mission inside the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, retired intelligence office Brock is drawn into investigate. Uncovering whispers of a traitor in British ranks, Brock teams up with an off-the-books SBS unit, REDKNIFE, to unmask the threat. But as reports of further failed British Military operations emerge it’s clear there’s more at stake than revenge. The dots connect across Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Britain and beyond, but all leads point to one man: Lawrence Taylor.

But when Taylor is shot dead by his own wife, MI5 officer Anna, during a covert operation in Dubrovnik, the threat - and the truth - doesn't die with him. NOMAD is still out there: waiting, watching. And it seems Anna's secrets run deeper than anyone suspects . . .
