About this listen

Never has there been a more graphic account of the SAS in action, never a thriller so authentically grounded in the twists and turns of undercover warfare. This sequel to The One That Got Away is a work of "faction".

Wounded in the Gulf War, Geordie Sharp, a sergeant in the SAS, returns to Hereford to find his home life in tatters. As he trains with Northern Ireland Troop, a murder in his family fires him with personal hatred of the IRA. Posted to Belfast, he discovers that his adversary is Declan Farrell, a leading player in the Provisional IRA. Sharp sets out to stalk and kill his man.

Critic reviews

"Hard as nails." ( Mirror)
"Tough, high-testosterone stuff, gripping." ( Glasgow Herald)
"Ryan has come up with a big-balled romp that's just dying to be read in the company of a beer, a sun lounger, and a holiday in the Mediterranean." ( Maxim)
