It's payback time and revenge can be sweet--if somewhat
complicated. All that Ivanna Delimkova --the new queen of the
Moscow cartel--wants is to get even with those who ripped them off.
But this proves far from simple--none of her targets are quite what
they appear. Seemingly innocent former SAS officer Harry Linley
finds himself in the midst of Russian mobsters, Iranian secret
agents, a British computer hacker, and a bumbling MI6 agent with a
knack for accidentally predicting the next international crisis.
These are all the ingredients for a masterful and humorous thriller
that races between the Gulf States, Singapore, Moscow, Iran,
Bermuda and London--purring contentedly in the middle of it all is
Bunny, a Persian cat presumed dead but very much alive.

triology and a riveting portrayal of postcolonial espionage. With
an introduction by the author.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER
A whistle-blower. A witch hunt. A cover-up. Secret tribunals,
out-of-control intelligence agencies, and government corruption.
Welcome to 1890s Paris.
Alfred Dreyfus has been convicted of treason, sentenced to life
imprisonment on a far-off island, and publicly stripped of his
rank. Among the witnesses to his humiliation is Georges Picquart,
an ambitious military officer who believes in Dreyfus's guilt as
staunchly as any member of the public. But when he is promoted to
head of the French counter-espionage agency, Picquart finds
evidence that a spy still remains at large in the
military--indicating that Dreyfus is innocent. As evidence of the
most malignant deceit mounts and spirals inexorably toward the
uppermost levels of government, Picquart is compelled to question
not only the case against Dreyfus but also his most deeply held
beliefs about his country, and about himself.
'The action scenes are deftly choreographed and Standing is an
engaging protagonist' Financial Times 'The quick-fire pace of a
classic Leather guys-with-guns thriller that again hits the target'
The Sun What makes a good man become an assassin? A Navy SEAL has
gone rogue, selling his skills to the highest bidder as a
professional assassin. Ryan French no longer cares who he kills so
long as the price is right. His former bosses want him taken down,
but they're not prepared to get their hands dirty so they need a
Brit to do the job. SAS trooper Matt "Lastman" Standing is a lethal
killing machine with experience in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria.
Plus he's worked with French in the past. It's not a mission he
wants, but Standing made a bad choice in his past and it has come
back to haunt him. Now he's hunting French in the lawless Wild West
forests of Humboldt County, where the US produces most of its legal
- and illegal - cannabis. But French isn't the only predator in the
wilderness - there are Mexican cartels, Russian Mafia and Hungarian
gangsters - and Standing has to overcome them all to get to his
target.
