Produktbeschreibung

A gripping thriller delving into the dark heart of Northern Ireland's turbulent history, from the best-selling military author Hugh McManners.

A botched bomb plot sets off a cascading chain of death and destruction. The fates of three warriors are entwined in a gruelling struggle where every move could be their last. Their loyalty and honour will be tested as the conflict unfolds on the troubled streets of 1980s Belfast.

SAS Captain Peter Straker will do anything to protect his team. His razor-sharp intuition saves them from a lethal ambush. But in the process, he commits a sin impossible to forgive.

PIRA commander Seán Carragher is a brilliant bomb tactician. When his meticulous plan unravels, the consequences are profound, and personal. The Cause needs him, but not if he's consumed by grief and revenge.

Neither are aware of being watched by a mysterious third player. Hidden in plain sight at Queen's University, Dr Arrosa Obregon is a woman of multiple identities. For the first time in her career, she's tempted to follow her heart and not her orders.

As the dark shadows of treachery and corruption threaten their faith, each combatant will face a choice between blind loyalty and personal integrity. Can they conquer their inner demons and prevent further bloodshed before it's too late?
