Publisher Description
MI5 Officer David White has always tried to be a good father, so when his daughters want to go to a music festival in Israel, he agrees to take them. But his world falls apart when his daughters are killed in the Hamas massacre that left 1,200 innocent civilians dead.
White is taken hostage down in the tunnels under Gaza, and Dan 'Spider' Shepherd and a crack SAS team are sent in to rescue him.
Safely back in London, White is a changed man. He wants revenge for what happened to his family and sets out to kill the men who planned and financed the Hamas attacks.
And as White embarks on a vengeance-driven killing spree, Shepherd is the only man who can stop him.

Customer Reviews
Fantastic contemporary thriller
Best Dan Shepherd novel I have read in a while.
So up to date .. Excellent
I do like Spider anyway, but this story was so topical and on the nail it was spooky, and scary which all made for a really great read.
Even had morals and an interesting (spoiler alert) end.
As always, looking forward to next episode and seeing how Spider makes use of his unexpected gift 🤔🤔
A must read
Outstanding book and easy to read.
