A Fine Night for Dying

From the bestselling author of The Eagle Has Landed comes a heart-stopping, gripping tale set in the dark, violent storm of World War II. In 1943, a British intelligence operative, two American Rangers, an extraordinary woman, and an American Mafia overlord parachute into Nazi-occupied Sicily to convince the Sicilian Mafian king to back invading American forces.

Chantage, kidnapping, menace terroriste: en s'embarquant vers le Moyen-Orient pour sauver une fillette enlevée à son père et destinée à être mariée de force à un intégriste, l'agent Sean Dillon met le pied sur une mine prête à exploser... Un réseau terroriste aux ramifications internationales, vraisemblablement manipulé par la Russie, dirigé par un fou sanguinaire : Hussein Rashid, alias "Le Marteau de Dieu". De l'Angleterre à l'Irak en passant par l'Algérie, la France et la Belgique, Dillon va devoir jouer avec un ennemi doué d'ubiquité. Au risque d'y laisser sa peau. Et de nous surprendre, une fois de plus.

Contre-attaque

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.

Rough Justice

July 1940. England prepares for invasion, all eyes focused on its borders.

 But such focus inevitably leaves gaps elsewhere, and Hitler sees an opportunity to carry out an audacious plot that would change the course of the war.

 The Duke of Windsor, brother to King George VI and former ruler of the United Kingdom in his own right, is a target.

 Hitler's intention: to kidnap him and hold him ransom - the ultimate leverage against an embattled and beleaguered British government.

 But can it really be done? And who amongst the German secret services is audacious enough to set a trap to catch a king?
