Paris. An elderly man is assassinated as he takes his morning walk.

Syria. The government forces wage a bloody war against their own people.The Russians are propping up the government, the French are backing one rebel fraction and the British are backing another.

And in North Africa, young SAS trooper Danny Black is coming to the end of a gruelling tour of duty - or so he thinks.

Danny has a new mission. An MI6 agent needs to make contact with Syrian rebel forces and the private military contractors who are - unofficially - training this rebel faction as it struggles to bring down their government and establish a new regime that will be favourable to British business interests.

As Danny finds himself sucked into the murky orbit of private military, he'll soon discover a world where death is dispensed by the highest bidder and individuals will betray anybody if the price is right . . .

Autor

Former SAS corporal and the only man to escape death or capture during the Bravo Two Zero operation in the 1991 Gulf War, Chris Ryan turned to writing thrillers to tell the stories the Official Secrets Act stops him putting in his non-fiction. His novels have gone on to inspire the Sky One series Strike Back.

Born near Newcastle in 1961, Chris Ryan joined the SAS in 1984. During his ten years there he was involved in overt and covert operations and was also sniper team commander of the anti-terrorist team. During the Gulf War, Chris Ryan was the only member of an eight-man unit to escape from Iraq, where three colleagues were killed and four captured. It was the longest escape and evasion in the history of the SAS. For this he was awarded the Military Medal.

He wrote about his experiences in the bestseller The One That Got Away, which was adapted for screen, and since then has written three other works of non-fiction, fourteen bestselling novels and a series of childrens' books.

Like playing Call of Duty, Battlefield, or Medal of Honour, Chris Ryan's writing will put you at the heart of the action.
