* * * * * * *
A murder. A mystery that will change everything.
Will Jaeger's family are gone, and they're not coming back.
But there's one thing he can fix. His best friend has been found dead, and he's going to catch the monsters that killed him.
To do it, Jaeger assembles an expert team of ex-SAS soldiers. They must head deep into the Amazon rainforest. It seems his friend was on the trail of an old Nazi bomber.
And someone definitely wants it kept secret. As things go wrong, and Jaeger closes the net on his friend's killer, he comes to realise one thing.
Everything is connected. And, for one man, the War never ended . . .
A modern, edge-of-your-seat thriller, shrouded in the shadows cast by Nazi Germany. Great for fans of Gregg Hurwitz, James Swallow, and I Am Pilgrim.

If you're looking for an entertaining read, a good story and a how to survive the most challenging of conditions then this is definitely the book for you. I thoroughly enjoyed the read and can't wait to see what happens next as Bear leaves the door open at the end and you know full well that something's about to happen in the future.

Brilliantly done... [This is a] thought-provoking read with a story that is, at times, frighteningly realistic and believable. The whole has been beautifully researched.

[A] fast and furious debut novel
Press Association
-
An impressively strong fiction debut from one of the best known TV faces of survival and outdoor adventure, Bear Grylls makes full use of his military and survivalist background to deliver a rip-roaring and vividly colourful Boy's Own-style thriller.
Irish Independent
-
Ghost Flight is a great adventure story: huge spiders, deadly piranhas, unforgiving terrains, evil Nazis, and death at every turn. What's not to like? Jason Bourne meets Ban Hope with a dash of Indiana Jones in an adventure series set to continue.
Buzz Magazine

'This debut thriller by the adventurer Bear Grylls is enthralling. Grylls excels in describing the trials and tribulations of tramping through uncharted Amazon rainforests...'

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. I expected it to be all gung ho which it was in parts given the author, but at the same time it was interesting and entertaining, with an interesting theme developing. The narrative was excellent make the characters stand out.
