About this listen

 WHITE LIES is a fast paced, heart-pounding thriller that will have you hooked from the first minute until the last - the eleventh Spider Shepherd book in Stephen Leather's bestselling series.

Dan 'Spider' Shepherd is used to putting his life on the line - for his friends and for his job with MI5. So when one of his former apprentices is kidnapped in the badlands of Pakistan, Shepherd doesn't hesitate to join a rescue mission.

But when the plan goes horribly wrong, Shepherd ends up in the hands of al-Qaeda terrorists. His SAS training is of little help as his captors beat and torture him.

Shepherd's MI5 controller Charlotte Button is determined to get her man out of harm's way, but to do that she's going to have to break all the rules. Her only hope is to bring in America's finest - the elite SEALs who carried out Operation Neptune Spear - in a do-or-die operation to rescue the captives.

I really have got hooked on these books, pretty much listened to them back to back sofar.

My only gripe really is the constant use of the term 'secret squirrel' i highly doubt americans would use the tern and its mentioned multiple times in quite a few of these books.

Other than that it's really good

Another great spider shepherd book
