No Game for Heroes
(2025)(The third book in the Lion of God: A Shadow Warriors Companion series)
A novel by Stephen England
‘An American is in trouble, here in the emirate, and odds are good he’ll be dead before morning.’
Doha, Qatar. A shimmering, opulent oasis of civilization between the desert and the sea. A city whose glittering veneer serves to mask the far darker rot beneath. Corruption. Oppression. Human trafficking. Terrorism.
For nearly a decade, Israeli intelligence officer Miki Abecassis has run the Mossad’s network in Qatar, ingratiating himself with the rich and the powerful, manipulating those who count him friend—passing along the whispers of the indiscreet. Not just a player of the spy game, but a master. But the game is changing. . .
With the American war in Afghanistan approaching its end, the US State Department and the Taliban’s Islamic Emirate—which the Unites States does not recognize—arrive in Doha for talks which will decide the fate of that embattled country. But among the followers of jihad are those who view the negotiations as nothing short of betrayal, a stain on their honor which must be blotted out.
And as Abecassis and the Israelis race to grasp the true nature of the plot against the talks, as the bodies begin to fall, one by one, and old secrets enter the light, one thing becomes devastatingly clear:
This is no game for heroes.
Genre: Thriller
