Nick Stone Thriller - 16: For Valour

Více o knize

Ex-SAS, ex-Black Ops, Nick Stone is back in action in his most heart-stopping adventure yet. After a young trooper is shot in the head at the Regiment's Killing House, Stone is uniquely qualified to investigate the mysterious circumstances. Having just returned from Moscow, where he struggles with the knowledge that his girlfriend and baby son are safer without him, he combines his understanding of the Special Forces landscape with a necessary detachment. However, less than forty-eight hours later, a second death thrusts him into the crosshairs of an unknown assassin determined to protect a secret that could undermine the establishment Stone has fought to defend. With time running out, he races from a remote Welsh confessional to Glencoe, a place steeped in murder and betrayal, and then to Southern Spain. His quest to uncover the truth traces back to an Afghan hillside, where a young man is haunted by the screams of a friend the Taliban skinned alive. This gripping adventure compels readers to confront the fine line between sacrifice and suicide, to share the nightmares that accompany heroism, and to recognize the true cost of loyalty-driven actions.
