Dan Raglan, former Foreign Legion fighter, alias The Englishman, returns in this high-octane international thriller from David Gilman.

Someone's trying to start a war. And Raglan's just walked into the kill zone.

It has been many years since Dan Raglan served in the French Foreign Legion, but the bonds forged in adversity are unbreakable and when one of his comrades calls for help, Raglan is duty-bound to answer.

An ex-legionnaire, now an intelligence officer at the Pentagon, disappears. He leaves only this message: should he ever go missing, contact Raglan. But Raglan's not the only one looking for the missing man. From the backstreets of Marseilles, Raglan finds himself following a trail of death that will lead him to Florida, to a Vietnam vet in Washington D.C., and into the heart of a bitter battle in the upper echelons of the US intelligence community.

Pursued by both the CIA and a rogue female FBI agent, Raglan's search will place him in the cross hairs of an altogether more lethal organisation. He finds himself in the midst of a deadly conspiracy, and on a journey to a fatal confrontation deep in the Honduran rainforest.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

David Gilman's Betrayal is praised for its well-crafted plot and believable narrative, with vivid depictions of locations that bring the story to life. It's described as a gripping, intense spy thriller filled with courage and thrilling action sequences, reminiscent of classic action genre tales with a one-man army hero. The story captivates from the start and is both exhilarating and hard to put down, blending intriguing plots with bursts of shocking, action-packed encounters. The slower pace compared to its predecessor allows for deeper character development and relationships.
