‘An absolute must-read for fans of Clancy, Ludlum et al’ Bookseller & Publisher.
An international crisis. An ex-navy hero. Time’s running out.
It’s hard to bury a past. Lachlan Fox is about to discover it’s ever harder to dig it back up.
While most of the world’s intelligence resources have been tied up in Afghanistan and Iraq, the President of Chechnya has been making plans — and the clock is ticking.
A world away, disillusioned ex-navy operative Lachlan Fox is on a diving trip with his best friend. From the moment they lift a mysterious metallic object off the sea floor, the two men set in motion a chain of events that will drag them into the corrupt world of international politics and arms races.
From East Timor to Grozny, Washington to New York and Venice to Iran, Lachlan Fox is forced into an adrenaline-fuelled quest to save his friend, himself . . . and the world.
