What to expect
Discover the BRAND NEW explosive, edge-of-your-seat thriller from MILLION COPY BESTSELLER Rob Sinclair, for fans of Lee Child and David Baldacci.
‘In the world of action thrillers, Rob Sinclair is one of the best’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex Shaw
The most dangerous people are those with nothing to lose. Who don't care if they live or die.
Simon Peake does care… he just isn’t sure about what right now. The ex-soldier’s life is as close to rock bottom as it gets.
He needs a job and he needs a quiet life, but trouble always finds him...
Working for New York-based Irish mobster Harry Lafferty, he finds a job that requires him to use his special skills on some very unsavory people. His relationship with Harry’s niece isn’t exactly conducive to a quiet existence either…
As Peake tries to walk the fine line between surviving in this new life, and atoning for his old one, he struggles on both counts. And when his past comes back to bite him, and those closest to him are threatened, the reckoning will be merciless for anyone who stands in his way.
