Six thousand miles to the east, James Reece watches the names and pictures of the victims cross cable news.

In a global pursuit spanning four continents, James Reece will enlist the help of friends new and old to track down her killer and walk right into a trap set by a master sniper, a sniper who has enlisted help of his own…

'With a particular line in authentic tradecraft, this fabulously unrelenting thrill-ride was a struggle to put down' Mark Dawson

'Gritty, raw and brilliant!' Tom Marcus

β€˜So powerful, so pulse-pounding, so well-written – rarely do you read a debut novel this damn good’ Brad Thor
