About this listen

Dan 'Spider' Shepherd returns in the third stunning action thriller from bestselling author Stephen Leather.

Even deadlier than terrorists . . . are the men trying to stop them.

People-smuggling, counterfeit currency and attempted murder. It's all in a day's work for undercover cop Dan 'Spider' Shepherd. But what starts as a run-of-the mill investigation quickly turns into a matter of life and death when he uncovers a terrorist cell on a mission of death and destruction. The target: hundreds of passengers on a cross-channel train deep below the English Channel.

With the clock ticking and the explosives primed, Shepherd and his colleagues have to decide just how far they are prepared to go to save innocent lives. And they realise that to avoid catastrophe, they have to be even more merciless than the terrorists.

Critic reviews

An author who isn't afraid to tackle the new breed of crime that dominates today's headlines.
A breathless, exciting narrative with exquisite pacing.
This is an aggressively topical novel but a genuinely thrilling one, too.
Authentic stuff.

A good book if you like things like the Jack Reacher series, but British style and working for the state.

Loving the whole series so far , each book so far equally good. I’m glad I have found this series late, I have many books to get through before I catch up and have to wait for the latest to be released

Great narration and superb characters and story to boot
