Red Sun in Iraq

A brutal assassination, an IRA weapons cache and a violent attack forced him into the dangerous world of private security.

No stranger to violence, terrorist attacks, death, and the constant threat of becoming just another statistic. It took ten minutes of him listening to the offer; five seconds to calculate the risk-reward and one second to accept.

Protecting an Allied Forces reconstruction team inside Iraq was what he expected. What he didn’t, was being tasked to assist a fully armed military patrol to execute missions that, in Doyle’s book, were breaking every international law he was aware of.

After being convinced the missions were for the greater good. He travels deeper into Northern Iraq, where he’s faced with the biggest moral dilemma of his career that leaves him with only two choices; suck it up and enjoy the lucrative payday. Or take his chances trying to adjust back into society.

Packed with suspense, action, intrigue and the brutal realities of conflict. Mallon's thought-provoking debut novel takes you on a journey filled with emotions and visualisations that will force you to question the narrative.
