A deadly terrorist threat draws British intelligence officer Liz Carlyle into a dangerous pursuit in which she discovers that her unique ability to get inside the enemy's head could be the only hope of averting a horrific disaster.
MI5 Intelligence Officer Liz Carlyle feels marginalised when her boss Charles Wetherby pulls her out of the Counter Terrorist Committee and tasks her to investigate a tip that years ago the IRA planted a sleeper in one of the branches of British Intelligence. To Liz, who had been involved in tracking terror cells posing a major threat to the security of the nation, the danger posed by an IRA sleeper seems minimal. But Liz is proven wrong. The sleeper is no longer working for the IRA; his fanatical hatred of the British has led him to team up with Britsh born Al Qaeda supporters. He is their planner, their Mr Big. And they have a plot to destroy a major British establishment. It is essential that Liz discovers who this sleeper is and gets inside his mind, to figure out the target and the terrorists' ingenius plan to circumvent the tight security. The lives of the very flowering of British youth are at stake.
Following the astute MI5 officer Liz Carlyle, this spy novel delves into a gripping narrative filled with psychological intricacies and relentless tension. As she navigates the challenges of her high-stakes career, readers are drawn into a world of espionage that tests her intellect and ambition. The story promises to keep audiences on the edge of their seats with its complex characters and suspenseful plot twists.
MI5 Intelligence Officer Liz Carlyle is summoned to a meeting with her boss Charles Wetherby, head of the Service's Counter-Espionage Branch. His counterpart over at MI6 has received alarming intelligence from a high-placed Syrian source. A Middle East peace conference is planned to take place at Gleneagles in Scotland and several heads of state will attend. The Syrians have learned that two individuals are mounting an operation to disrupt the peace conference in a way designed to be spectacular, laying the blame at Syria's door. The source claims that Syrian Intelligence will act against the pair, presumably by killing them. No one knows who they are or what they are planning to do. Are they working together? Who is controlling them? Or is the whole story a carefully laid trail of misinformation? It is Liz's job to find out. But, as she discovers, the threat is far greater than she or anyone else could have imagined. The future of the whole of the Middle East is at stake and the conference deadline is drawing ever closer.
MI5 intelligence officer Liz Carlyle has just been despatched to Northern Ireland. It's a promotion, and she'll be running agents - her favourite activity - but it also means being separated from Charles Wetherby, her old boss, recently widowed and a very close friend. Attachments in the Intelligence Services are not encouraged: it seems her superiors know more about Liz's life than she thinks. In Belfast, Liz and her team are monitoring the brutal breakaway Republican groups who never accepted the peace process and want to continue their 'war'. Intelligence is focused on the shady Fraternity, with links to drug-running, arms-dealing and organised crime. With some help from Special Branch and a volunteer informant who seems to be legit, the Fraternity's leader is identified as a cold, calculating and ruthless American, hijacking the Cause for his own financial ends. It is a perilous group to become involved with. Especially if your informant turns tail…
