About the book
Simon Vaughan's life of adventure and arms trafficking came to an abrupt end the day the police threw him into a jail cell in Greece. But then the British Army comes calling with an offer he can't refuse. In exchange for his freedom, Vaughan must recover a bounty of gold stolen by the IRA in Belfast, and extinguish the organization's ruthless leader in the process. Now Vaughan must brave a new kind of war zone, one where he'll fight to hang on to his freedom, and his life.
