Book Description
When an British secret service operative turns up dead in a London restaurant shoot-out, the SIS suspects that he was caught in the crossfire of a robbery with overtones of underworld drug gangs, and that his death was coincidental. But it soon turns out that one of the corpses was a shadowy figure with multiple identities and potential ties to terror organizations. Evidence of a cover-up emerges from somewhere deep within the British secret services, and it becomes clear to Peter Ashton and the SIS that something far more nefarious than a random shooting has taken place. Even more alarmingly, when suicide bombers attack British Council offices in Pakistan and Russia, it becomes obvious that a terrorist operation is underway. Now it's up to Ashton and his colleagues to follow the faint traces, uncover and disrupt the operation, and track down the two central figures at the heart of the conspiracy.

Pages : 392
Book Description
SIS agent Peter Ashton, currently the department head for the Eastern European desk, finds himself facing the touchiest - and most dangerous situation of his career as the SIS itself comes under siege from persons or groups unknown. Someone who is clearly ferreting out some of the most closely held secrets of the intelligence agency and using them to make some not-so-veiled threats. At the same time, Jill Sheridan, one of the most senior SIS people, is off in Florida, trying to stay well out of the way while her lover's wife involves her in a very nasty, very public divorce. While there, however, she is compromised and finds herself being blackmailed by an Islamic terrorist group. When a large quantity of an illicit chemical agent turns up in rather unlikely place, it falls to Ashton to evaluate these three very disparate turns of event. Somehow, these seemingly unrelated but troubling events are all part of the same careful, complex and very deadly plot - one that threatens the highest reaches of England's security service. With few leads and very little time, Peter Ashton must uncover and neutralize his most deadly enemy to date.

Pages : 390
Book Description
SIS officer Will Landon assumes he is facing a routine task when he is asked to investigate and vet the sensational novelized memoirs of Ross Frazer. By all records, Frazer was an ex-Intelligence officer, quite possibly involved in some long ago political assassinations, and is currently very much deceased. But events quickly take a deadly, unexpected turn. First the London literary agent in charge of the manuscript is found gruesomely murdered and his copy stolen by two people claiming to be with law enforcement. Then the body of the New York bookshop owner who was the original source of the manuscript is found brutally tortured and murdered. This once simple situation quickly lands on the desk of Peter Ashton, now an assistant director of the SIS. In this confusing situation, Ashton clearly sees the footprints of a now disgraced former SIS director - but when he tries to locate her, he finds she's gone missing as well. With precious little to go on then, Ashton along with his protégé Will Landon must start making connections-and fast-in order to uncover who, and what is really behind this increasingly deadly situation.
