After the British military lose an officer to Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan, a desperate race begins to find his killers. Little do the assailants know that the precious information they have stolen could bring down the entire network of Western intelligence in the Mid-East. But then one of them is captured by US troops and flown to the States for interrogation.
And so begins a nail-biting, claustrophobic and explosive thriller that will ultimately lead British operative John Stratton to the Styx penitentiary, America’s undersea prison. How do you break in to a jail a hundred metres below the ocean? Can Stratton get the information back without the US discovering him? And is everyone in the prison really who they seem to be?
With its labyrinthine narrative and authentic detail, its CIA plots and White House agents, this fourth thriller in the Stratton series will catapult Duncan Falconer right into the top tier.
At barely 19, Duncan Falconer was the youngest recruit in modern times to pass the brutal selection to get into the British Special Boat Service. He spent 3 years with the top secret 14th Military Intelligence SAS Detachment. His exploits are documented in his 1st book, the bestselling First Into Action which sold 36k copies.
After almost 12 years in the service he went on to spend the next few decades taking journalists and news crews into the most hostile locations on earth such as Afghanistan and Iraq throughout the recent wars and all over Africa. Falconer went on to become an accomplished Crisis Manager, advising and managing evacuations and kidnappings in conflict zones around the world.
