Ed Coltrane is an ex-SAS operative who has been trying to hunt down those who murdered his wife Astrid Kweiss in Bosnia-Herzegovina. They are Brigadier Domedzic and Zoran Mihac. An old colleague of Coltrane's tells him that Domedzic is now in London at a British intelligence "safe house". Coltrane quickly senses that he can't miss this last chance to take revenge. But to achieve his aim, he will have to compromise and even face an act of national betrayal... A fast-paced adventure story in Mr Strong's traditional style.

On the face of it an adventure story. Ex-SAS man trapped into a chase which is actually designed to lead to his own death. Nail-biting stuff to the end.

Actually, a political tract with a decidely anti-EU message. There is even a tag at the end of the book to tell you where you can find out more about the threat which the EU. according to Mr Strong, represents.

I must say that this was a great read. It was relly well written and researched. I had a very hard time putting this book down. I did find myself laughing at times and found these times appropriate. The story itself is worrisome when you actually remove some of the fiction and think about it. This is the first book I have read by Terence Strong and look forward to reading more of his work. I would and have highly recommend this book.
