"Some writers talk the talk, but Roger Price walks the walk." Stephen Leather
1988MI5 intelligence officer, Bertram Hastings is unconventional having not come through the Oxbridge route, but is an excellent field operative. Together with Captain Vernon Jackson - who has as many haters as admirers, but is known to get results - lead SAS Red Troop; a unit formed to take the fight to the terrorists in Ulster.
The Provisional IRA suffer severe financial setback at the hands of Red Troop, following a tip-off from America.
Meanwhile, women are being snatched off the streets of Dublin and dumped, bound and gagged, outside a Belfast police station. They are escapees from justice who were used by the IRA as ‘honeytraps’ to kill soldiers and policemen.
Loyalist UFF commander Billy Campbell is behind the extra-judicial extraditions, driven by a personal hatred of the honeytrap tactic. He is also hell-bent on escalating the sectarian war to unseen levels. The IRA are hell-bent on killing him.
Red Troop must stop this by getting to Campbell, but he is always one step ahead as he receives help from within the RUC.
Then a ghost from Jackson’s past threatens to disband Red Troop if they fail in their assignment.
In a race-against-time to stop PIRA and the UFF from escalating the conflict, Jackson and Hastings have to consider doing the unthinkable
But will their audacious plan work? And at what price?
Roger A. Price left the police as Special Operations DI and became an Amazon No:1 bestselling crime fiction author. With several crime thrillers and procedurals published, he continues to delve into his bank of real life experiences to bring his novels to life.
