as always, Jack Higgins is the master and the story is well narrated by Nigel Carrington.

I tried twice to listen to this audiobook- which was well enough read - but just couldn’t get past the (many) paper-thin stereotypes. If you like your Islamic fundamentalist terrorists fanatical and irredeemable, your IRA fighters tough, smart and with a hidden heart of gold, your American and Brit heroes smart, violent and SAS-trained, this book’s for you. For the rest of us, there are all the other books in the Audible library.

Couldn’t raise the enthusiasm to finish this one!

not too bad but I found this book a little hard going & dull. possibly due to the narration, which is monotone with very little accent change between characters. compared to the previous books in the series up to around book 18 (ish) these last 2/3 books are hard to listen to.. in my opinion....
