L'irlandais

A classic thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Eagle Has Landed.

 Oliver Grant is a decorated soldier, Military Intelligence Major and a case-hardened mercenary. So when the stepson of a Mafia boss is kidnapped and taken to a Libyan prison fortress, Grant is the perfect choice to carry out the rescue.

 Except for one detail: he doesn't want the job.

 In an attempt to change his mind, Grant's young sister is snatched and he is forced to comply - he knows that the Mafia don't make idle threats.

 But then Grant's beautiful, innocent lover also disappears, and he realises that he is involved in a game that will be played to the death.

Bloody Passage

The master of the game is back, with another pulse-pounding adventure featuring the unstoppable Sean Dillon

 Whilst checking up on the volatile situation in Kosovo the US President's right-hand man Blake Johnson meets Major Harry Miller, a member of the British Cabinet. Miller is there doing his own checks for the British Prime Minister.

 When both men get involved with a group of Russian soldiers about to commit an atrocity, Miller puts and end to the scuffle with a bullet in the forehead of the ring-leader.

 But this action has dire consequences not only for Miller and Johnson but their associates too, including Britain's Sean Dillon, and all the way to the top of the British, Russian and United States governments.

 Death begets death, and revenge leads only to revenge, and before the chain reaction of events is over, many will be dead.
