About this listen

Complete and unabridged. From the author of the bestselling Danny Black series and the hit TV show Strikeback.

Despatches from the secret world behind the headlines. Former SAS legend Chris Ryan brings you his seventeenth novel, filled with his trademark action, thrills and inside knowledge. Osama Bin Laden is dead.
The President of the United States knows it. The world knows it. And SAS hero Joe Mansfield knows it. He was on the ground in Pakistan when it happened. He saw Seal Team 6 go in, and he saw them extract with their grisly cargo. He was in the right place at the right time.

Or maybe, the wrong place at the wrong time.

Because now, somebody wants Joe dead, and they're willing to do anything to make it happen. His world is violently dismantled. His family is targeted, his reputation destroyed. And as a mysterious and ruthless enemy plans a devastating terror attack on both sides of the Atlantic, Joe knows this: his only chance of survival is to find out what happened in Bin Laden's compound the night the Americans went in.

But an unseen, menacing power has footprints it needs to cover. And it will stop at nothing to prevent him uncovering the sinister truth...

Really really good story but the narrator is a little boring and lacking in accents, but other than that it's a really good read

Great book, good performance, gripping storyline. Not for the faint hearted, it’s brutal and leaves you torn to shreds.

Hard Hitting

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The story was good, but let down by miss pronunciation of the commonest of words. I found myself missing the detail because I was waiting for next miss pronunciation.

Disappointing

This book is awesome. I have read most of Chris Ryan’s work and think that this is the best written of them in my opinion. It has it all. Deffo worth a read / listen.
