WITHOUT MERCY
As Detective Superintendent Hannah Bernstein of Special Branch lies
recuperating in the hospital, an enigmatic shadow from the past, burning
with hatred, steals into her room and finishes the job. Consumed by
grief and rage, Dillon, Blake Johnson, and all who loved Hannah swear
vengeance, no matter where it takes them. But they have no idea of the
searing journey upon which they are about to embark--or of the bloody
war into which they are about to charge.
THE KILLING GROUND
For intelligence operative Sean Dillon, it is a routine passport check.
But the events it will lead to will be as bloody as any he has ever
known. The man he stops at Heathrow airport is Caspar Rashid, born and
bred in England, but with family ties to a Bedouin tribe fiercely wedded
to the old ways, as Rashid has just found out to his pain. His
thirteen-year-old daughter, Sara, has been kidnapped by Rashid's own
father and taken to Iraq to be married to a man known as the 'Hammer of
God', one of the Middle East's most feared terrorists.
Dillon has had his own run-ins with the tribe, and when the distraught
man begs him for help, he sees a chance to settle some old scores - but
Dillon has no idea of the terrible chain of events he is about to
unleash, nor of the implacable enemies he is about to gain.
Before his journey is done, many men will die - and Dillon may be one of
them.
