When it comes, the answer is worse than anyone expects.For the deaths in Liverpool are just the start of a twisted international killing spree by an ambitious psychopath with a point to prove.As the odds, and the stakes, stack up, Keane has no option but to mount an unorthodox operation on unfamiliar and dangerous territory.
