As thriller writers go this guy is right up at the top!! --Turf Book ReviewsHaving enjoyed the first book, I was keen to see if the author could produce another book to the same standard...and I wasn't disappointed. The depth of background information is educational and well researched, the story is gripping and the characters are believable and have depth. This is an action packed, fast paced story and I did little else whilst reading it - I couldn't bear to put it down. Congratulations to the author - can't wait for the next one. --Jo Hammond reviewsProduct DescriptionAn action thriller written by new author Conrad Jones.

Fast-paced, tight prose, it kept me hooked from start to finish. I'll definitely be reading more from this author. On March 20th 1993 the Irish Republican Army exploded two bombs outside the restaurant that he was managing resulting in the death of two young boys, who were shopping for mothers' day presents. The incident started a life time interest in to what motivates terrorists, no matter what their cause. The shocking long term effects of such attacks on innocent people echo through time.
