In a sequel to Raven's Kiss, Roy French returns with another tale of the Raven, aka Daniel Riordan, once the most feared of all paramilitary enforcers in Ireland.

This novel continues the story of the Raven, a former paramilitary enforcer who has been persuaded to join a prestigious security firm. When a distraught father asks Riordan to investigate his daughter's death, despite his boss's reluctance, his instincts tell him that this was more than an accidental death. The girl was involved in a clinical trial which went horribly wrong, but the circumstances of her death do not make sense.
When he probes too deeply, he finds his own life and the lives of those around him in jeopardy. He discovers that two competing biotech firms are involved, and in researching the clinical trials process he discovers that millions of dollars are at stake.
He slowly uncovers a plot as cunning as it is malevolent, and finds that some people will stop at nothing, not even the killing of innocent civilians, to make their company successful.
In the end, he finally discovers the truth, but before doing so he finds his children have become pawns in a deadly game.
To save them, he must face a killer unlike any other he has met before.

This continues the story of the Raven, a paramilitary enforcer who is trying to put his past behind him.

In a sequel to his award-winning A Sense of Honour, Roy French returns with another tale of the Raven, once the most feared of all paramilitary enforcers in Ireland.
Daniel Riordan is trying desperately hard to put his past behind him, but when his friends are killed in a house fire and the police believe it was accidental, Riordan must return to the arcane skills of his past, to the being that was the Raven, in order to uncover the truth.
The path, however, leads back to his former life, re-opening old, painful wounds and places his own life in jeopardy. He finds help from an unexpected source. John Waters, a commando from the elite Special Air Service, is tracking a notorious terrorist who has been contracted by the very people for whom Riordan is searching.
His quest is also very personal, totally unsanctioned, and in coming to Riordan's aid together they manage to lay old ghosts to rest.
Once again, French takes us on a wild ride from the dark mountains of Ireland, to the forests of British Columbia and on to the calm, blue waters of Cuba, the plot twisting and turning all the way.
