Sinossi
Bassora, febbraio-marzo 2007. Nick Stone ha fallito. Clamorosamente. Incaricato di proteggere due operatori televisivi, l’ex agente del SAS britannico è stato attaccato da un gruppo di ribelli armati, e solo grazie alla rapida reazione di Pete, il cameraman della stessa troupe, riesce a salvarsi. Mentre Nick è in infermeria, ferito, Pete viene ucciso in circostanze poco chiare e Dom, il collega giornalista, sparisce nel nulla, forse rapito. Ricevuto dai servizi segreti l’incarico di ritrovarlo, ne segue le tracce dall’Iraq a Londra, poi a Dublino e infine a Kabul, la città dura e spietata dove il destino di uomini di governo e terroristi s’intreccia inesorabilmente agli affari internazionali. In mezzo a questo fuoco incrociato Stone scopre che l’incubo è solo all’inizio: in un crescendo di azioni pericolose si ritrova infatti invischiato in un torbido segreto a sfondo sessuale e in un traffico di droga e di esseri umani nel quale qualcuno di assolutamente insospettabile gioca davvero sporco. Lui, il cacciatore, è diventato la preda in una drammatica corsa contro il tempo per salvare più di una vita e fare giustizia. Un’avventura ad alta tensione, narrata in una prosa dura come la storia che racconta.

Wow! I feel as though I've just spent the last few hours rummaging around in the hot and dusty backstreets of Kabul with Nick Stone rescuing a renowned TV presenter who got himself involved with some rather shady characters. McNab's first hand military experience has certainly paid off to bring his
I picked this book up in a charity shop, thinking how I had enjoyed the series Strike Back on TV, I am so glad I did. I have no idea how authentic the details are, but I really enjoyed the story. I was gripped pretty early on and enjoyed the ride that much, it was over before I knew it. Will definit Leggi tutto
The author being a former operator himself; this is as close as it gets to the real thing. Somehow I have a strong feeling this book is a fictionalized account of something that really took place and the author replaced the names for anonymity. A real good read with a healthy dose of sarcastic Briti Leggi tutto
McNab is an excellent writer whose efforts to deliverance enjoyable product are most appreciated, particularly impressive is his attention to detail along with a sense of reality tied to a work of fiction.
This book is excellent - from a gritty uncomplicated lead who is well rounded and extremely well written to a multinational setting the story veers wildly from twist to turn. It may be thriller by numbers, but it's written so well it's head and shoulders above the rest.
