From the author of Harry's Game - A Sunday Times '100 best crime
novels and thrillers since 1945' pick Gus Peake should have kept
his job and stayed at home, but an old family debt of friendship
draws him to the remote wastes of Northern Iraq and to a savage
forgotten war between Kurdish guerillas and Saddam Hussein's
military strength. To the brutal, no-quarter combat, Peake can
bring the skills he has learned as a marksman. But there is no room
for mistakes on the field of battle and he must quickly learn to
deal out random death at long distance, and help the guerillas to
reach their goal, the city of Kirkuk, the old capital of the
Kurdish people. From Baghdad, Iraq sends Major Karim Aziz, the most
dedicated and professional sniper in Saddam's army. For both men
their duel, from which only one can walk away, becomes an
obsession. And it will only take one shot, echoing in the mountains
and vallegs, to settle the score...
