About this listen

There's trouble in paradise ... or is it murder? The third explosive Matt Standing thriller from the bestselling author of the Spider Shepherd series.

The SAS are used to deaths during combat - it goes with the turf.

But when one of their own is said to have committed suicide in Thailand, red flags are raised.

Pete Green wasn't the sort of soldier who would ever take his own life - and no one is more sure of that than his twin brother, Davie.

Davie is determined to fly to the Land Of Smiles to find out what really happened to his twin brother. But if he is going to find out the truth he'll need help - the sort of help only SAS Sergeant Matt Standing can provide.

But soon after they arrive they come under attack, leaving Standing to investigate on his own. There are clearly people who want to shut down all enquiries and Standing knows he will have to use all his SAS jungle skills to survive. This will be the toughest of assignments but nothing will come between him and the truth ...

Critic reviews

Praise for Stephen Leather -
Stephen Leather writes really exciting action thrillers. It's like being there yourself (Chris Ryan, author of Zero 22)
The fast-paced action scenes are expertly choreographed; the description of settings - from the luxurious bars where Ankara's gangsters gather, to Dubai's glittering skyscrapers - is brisk and richly detailed. Leather knows the inner workings of the security services. But beyond the enthralling storyline he also asks some tough questions about contemporary Britain - without preaching
All stars

A book that grabs you from the get go and don't release its grip until the end.

Only downside is apparently every gun he picks up is a carbine!

Another action packed hit
