Book Description

Jack Calder and his former SAS colleagues at ISP, a specialist security firm, are saved from certain death when an ex-Gurkha is killed smothering a deadly grenade thrown into a lunchtime Chinese restaurant in the West End of London. They learn that murderous turf wars are raging between Asian Triads and Eastern European mobsters vying for control of international fiefdoms of drug smuggling, people trafficking, prostitution and money laundering.

An unexpected visit from the highest levels of international law enforcement offers Jack and the ISP team a means to use their black operations skills to wreak a ruthless retaliation against the drug lords.

Unlikely partners emerge in their onslaught against the gangs as the warring criminal factions threaten an unholy alliance to repel them. The pursuit spins across Europe, Turkey and North Africa before a final reckoning.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bang bang You're Dead September 13, 2012
By Amadeus
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I must admit having read this first before "The Violin Man's Legacy" which is a bad idea.

Partly because of this the characters were very flat as they had been fleshed out better in the previous book.

However whilst the plot was interesting enough to keep me turning the pages to the end, all the action seemed to be quite unreal as every "combat" style event took place smoothly and successfully which places it firmly in the land of fantasy. Even the sex was unbelievably successful!

Felt like something written well outside the author's real of knowledge, without the mitigating benefit of any real creativity.

Still, no reason not to take it with you on holiday.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seumas Gallacher at his best! July 6, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Vengeance Wears Black exudes pure Seumas Gallacher at his best!

Travel the globe with Jack Calder in his world of International Security!

A direct and to the point style of writing beguiles you as the plot is layered.

Classic, fast paced, action that allows you to rub elbows with Interpol, the ISP and syndicated crimes such as human trafficking.

Will Jack Calder save the girl?

A plot that keeps you locked in until you are finished.

Only to leave you with this...
If the first two books of this series are anything 'to go buy'.... How can we wait for #3!

Don't stop now Seumas, I am hooked on the 'Jack Calder Novel' series!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Thriller April 17, 2013
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I haven't ready anything by Seumas Gallacher before, and this fast-paced thriller was certainly a great read. Set on an international stage the story provided well-fleshed out characters, suspense and details aplenty to make it very believable. Definitely engrossing from first page to last - I'll be looking for more by Seumas Gallacher.

More About the Author

Seumas Gallacher was born in the cradle of the Govan shipyards in Glasgow in the so-called "bad old days" which were in reality the greatest of days, where everybody was a real character of note.

An early career as a trainee Scottish banker led to a spell in London, where his pretence to be a missionary converting the English locals fell on deaf ears.

Escape to the Far East in 1980 opened up access to cultures and societies on a global scale, eventually bringing the realisation that the world is quite simply one large extended village.

The lifelong desire to write has resulted in "The Violin Man's Legacy", the first in a planned series.

Seumas says that finishing that novel was one of the best feelings he has ever experienced in a life full of rich emotions.
