About this ebook

The ninth all-action thriller in the bestselling Dan 'Spider' Shepherd series.

The most wanted man in the world is dead. Now those loyal to him seek revenge.

When Navy Seals track down and kill Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, it's obvious there was a traitor on the inside. After the false friends are revealed to be two British students, Malik and Chaudhry - former Islamic fundamentalists recruited by MI5 - they become targets themselves. Dan 'Spider' Shepherd must teach the pair how to survive undercover with al-Qaeda closing in. But Spider is not used to playing the handler. And with the line between mentor and friend beginning to blur, and a terrorist plot putting thousands of lives at stake, can he protect everyone before it's too late?

As always a great read from Leather. An easy page turner with plenty of action. Beginning to become slightly repetitive if you have read the entire series so far. The big let down is again the lack of continuity from the previous book. This is becoming more of an issue as I read more. Still very well written though

A book that kept it going all the way to the end with some great twist and an awesome story line. A must read in my eyes. You can really get lost in this well written book. Great job stephen.
