What to expect
Aidan Snow thought he could escape his past. But now it’s back, with a vengeance.
Ten years ago, SAS Trooper Aidan Snow was left fighting for his life after a mission went wrong and ever since he has been haunted by the image of the man with green eyes. The man who should have killed him.
Now, Snow is finally living a peaceful life in Ukraine… Until Taurus Pashinski, the green-eyed man, returns.
As Snow’s past catches up with him he finds himself thrown back into the world of espionage with a vengeance.
