Summary

The new edge-of-your-seat novel in the thrilling Spider Shepherd series

Who can you trust if you can't trust the people tasked with protecting the nation?

Murderous jihadists have been crossing the English Channel, passing themselves off as asylum seekers. MI5 have been keeping them under surveillance, but what starts as a simple terrorist takedown goes badly wrong, and dozens of innocent civilians are killed in the heart of London.

And the screw is tightened when a bomb takes out senior members of the Secret Intelligence Service.

Someone within the security services has been working to their own agenda, and only Dan 'Spider' Shepherd can identify the bad apple. His search for the rogue agent takes him to Turkey and then to Dubai, where his masters order him to carry out a breathtaking act of revenge.

Excellent

Loved the story, just wish the author wouldn't change facts from previous books. Lex Harper started out as a Scotsman yet in this book he is a scouser. Also the twins had protected Spiders family before yet in this book he didn't know them.

Another great listen...

I love the Spider shepherd books, just wish I had listened to them in the order they came out, I spend a lot of time on the road and some days I don't want to attend my appoints as I need to hear the next paragraph, enjoy Paul's narration he has a good voice for audio.

scouse or Scotts?

only one complaint, the lex Harper thread needs to maintain its consistency. pretty sure he was originally introduced as Scottish.
